What is the main difference between this race disc and a standard clutch disc?

The 4-pad spring-centered race disc has a harsher engagement but allows for faster shifting. The spring center helps damp vibrations, making it suitable for smaller engines and demanding use.

How does the ACT Heavy Duty pressure plate improve clutch life?

ACT's Heavy Duty pressure plates use an exclusive diaphragm design that increases clamp load and reduces deflection. This means the clutch can handle more force and lasts longer under stress.

Does this clutch kit come with all the necessary hardware for installation?

The manufacturer description does not specify if hardware is included. It is recommended to consult the product's installation guide or contact ACT directly for a complete list of included components.

Product Details

HD/Race Sprung 4 Pad

VR2-HDG4 kit features ACT's most popular Heavy Duty pressure plate. ACT Heavy Duty 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 spring-centered race disc features a spring-center to properly damp torsional vibrations for quieter operation and resist failure even under harsh conditions. ACT spring retainers utilize wraparound spring windows and thicker retainer stampings to provide spring support, reduce stress concentrations, and increase strength and reliability. With the 4-pad spring-centered race disc, engagement is harsher, but shifting is faster. ACT's 4-pad spring-centered race disc is well-suited for smaller disc sizes in smaller engines.
