ACT clutch kits don't have 'stages'. When it comes to ACT clutches, you can mix them up. They have 3 different discs and 2 different pressure plates. The discs are as follows: Street Disc, 4 Puck Disc, and 6 Puck Disc. The pressure plates are as follows: Heavy Pressure Plate and Xtreme Pressure Plate. You can combine which ever that meets your standard and taste and driving style. I have the Disc and HPP. But it's close to stock gripping with a bit more force to it. HPP gets you about 45% grip where at XPP gives you about 55%-65% grip on the clutch. If I were you, I'd go for Xtreme Pressure Plate and Street Disc combo. The Street Disc allows you to shift more smoother and a bit faster and is closer to OEM disc which means it will last you longer than the other ones. The 'puck' discs will just allow the pressure plates to grip it much harder to get better transfer to the wheels. I would have gotten Xtreme PP with my Street Disc but I got my clutch kit for a good $200 almost brand new from a member on this forum. So I couldn't back that out.

that's the clutch disc. you also need a pressure plate which is part of a clutch kit. I'd use a street disc, a 4 and 6 puck are overkill for a 5sfte. then probably the Xtreme pressure plate, though you could probably get the Heavy pressure plate and be fine.

woops. my bad. but if you look on presure2's profile, he's using the heavy duty pressure plate with street disc, so, you'll be fine with that. Should be a little easier to drive that way too.

presure2 is actually using a stock disc. (i asked him before, he's using the 00 disc) 00 is a stock disc.
they also hv the SS disc which is their performance street disc. no MM (modified street disc) disc for us there is another guy on here wif the SS disc... but i can't remember his username This post has been edited by elvasoshexai: Aug 9, 2007 - 12:55 PM -------------------- |

i have the act stock disc with heavy duty pressure plate. my oem setup was slippn like a mofo when i boosted. this setup is good for 250 whp and that's just where i want to be. it's a tiny bit harder to push in but the grip is unreal. i also have the fidanza flywheel.

haha. I actually just stalled mine today. it's kinda embarrassing when you're first in line when the light turns green. but yeah, you get used to it after a while. I let my friend drive my car and stalled it too. lol. I only stall it once in a while, most of the time I can drive it regular. I have a spec stage 2 btw

my pedal feels almost exactly the same, the only difference i noticed was being able to engage at higher rpm's easier while downshifting.
