If you're looking to up your clutch game, the Advanced Clutch Xtreme Pressure Plate MZ018X is a solid choice. This isn't just any pressure plate; it's designed with a unique diaphragm that ramps up the clamp load, minimizes deflection, and helps your clutch last longer. After putting this bad boy through its paces, I can tell you firsthand that the four-stage heat-treating process really makes a difference in performance. You can feel the extra bite when you engage the clutch, and that’s something you notice right away.

What’s cool about ACT's pressure plates is that they’re built with precision cover stampings. This means you get a rigid and consistent performance every time you hit the gas. They really crank up the clamp load by anywhere from 50 to 120 percent, which is a huge boost whether you're cruising on the street or tearing it up on the track. Just make sure to pair it with a street or race disc for the best results.
