Does this clutch kit come with everything needed for installation?

This kit includes the ACT Xtreme Pressure Plate and the ACT 4-Pad Rigid Race Disc. It is recommended to check the manufacturer's installation guide to see if any additional hardware or alignment tools are needed for your specific vehicle.

What is the benefit of the 4-pad rigid race disc?

The 4-pad rigid race disc is designed for quicker shifts and is well-suited for the smaller disc sizes found in performance engines like the E46 M3. It uses a ceramic friction material for durability under demanding use.

XT/Race Rigid 4 Pad

BM9-XTR4 kit features an Xtreme pressure plate for the most demanding driver. ACT Xtreme pressure plates use exclusive diaphragm design to increase clamp load, reduce deflection and maximize clutch life. All diaphragms endure a four-stage, heat-treating process for unparalleled performance. ACT pressure plates have precision cover stampings to provide rigidity and consistency. ACT's 4-pad rigid race discs are made with high quality, ceramic friction materials. The chrome-moly hub is heat-treated for strength and durability. The lightweight, rigid design allows for quicker shifts and smooth, trouble-free service. With the 4-pad rigid race disc, engagement is harsher, but shifting is faster. The 4-pad rigid race disc is well-suited for the smaller disc sizes in smaller engines.
