Man, what a freaking weirdo. You get all freaked out, saying you got sent the wrong one? your crazy

Just build your motor around your clutch.

i get closer and closer to wanting to do it! turbo that is, just dont have the money for it now.

 

[Guest]

anybody know if this will break my transmission and how harsh is the engagement?

Umm, I'm kinda confused. Why would you get a clutch that is not intended for street use, and I might add only holds 308 ft.lbs of torque when you could've spent the money and got the NX9-XT00, that holds 323ft.lbs of torque, and is streetable?

If you went by that, then you couldn't mod your car at all. Just about every single performance or asthetic part I've ordered for my car has always said on it "FOR OFF ROAD USE ONLY"......its put there for legal reasons so you don't sue the company if something goes wrong.

I agree about the off road statements. But when it comes to clutches they are pretty honest. Reason being is due to the harsh engagement. If you are worried couldn't you keep the PP and buy a different disc? Sell the other or perhaps see if you could return it. From what I have heard, and read the disc you have is no joke when it engages.

I have the ACT 6-puck and ITS NO JOKE!! I have grown to hate it. It hooks, period not too bad once you get started but it's my daily driver and it gets annoying in town. I have another PP ready to go just gonna use a stock disc so I can get rid of the chatter. Good luck with a 4 puck heheheheh

 

[Guest]

damn, how loud is "the chatter"? can you describe the engagement? how is it different than a good stock clutch? thanks for the help

LOL....I had to laugh at that one.

Clutch chatter isn't a sound... it's a feeling. Like a shaking at engagement, typically 1st gear. My 98 SE with the stock clutch does it sometimes, not becuase its strong, but because it's a piece of ****. YMV.

The 98's have the:

1. Worst clutch
2. Worst cams
3. Shitty brakes
4. Shitty mounts

 

[Matt]

Here lemme describe the engaging. Vroooom, screeech.. That pretty much sums it up.

that ****en sucks! ACT says that the 6 pucks absorb heat and have a smoother engagment, while the 4 puck allows faster shifting but a harsh engagment.

storm, sorry im still learning a lot! lol

I HAVE A ACT FOUR PUCK AND ACT PRESSURE PLATE IN MY 92 CLASSIC. IT IS A HARSH CLUTCH BUT EASY TO GET USE TO. I DOES CHATTER IF YOU DO NOT REV YOUR CAR SOME DURING ENGAGEMENT. IF YOU DESIDE TO RACE YOUR CAR JUST BECAREFUL AT WHAT RMP YOU DUMP THE CLUTCH. ITS A BIG DIFFERENCE IN ENGAGEMENT SO JUST BECAREFUL, BUT IT IS A INCREDIBLE FEELING WHEN THE CLUTCH ENGAGES AND YOUR CAR JUST JUMPS FORWARD ASKING FOR POWER!
