ACT Copper un-sprung 6puck with extreme pressure plate kit....

Takes a little getting used to, and the clutch chatters a LITTLE bit @ like 500rpms or so, sometimes.... but the holding power is just amazing.

I kinda accidentally got some oil on my disc a few weeks ago (i had to take the clutch out for a tranny swap, which never ended up happening ) and the oil soaked into it Before then, I could easily snag 4th gear and break 'em loose... now a 3rd gear chirp is tough. Stupid oil

I think you should go with the act clutch for that b16 swap you plan to do in the next couple weeks.

Thumbs down ACT

I use to like the ACT clutch's until a friend of mine that also has a CRX with a B16A swap...his clutch just went out. I swear he didnt have more than 20,000 miles on that clutch. I can guarantee you that he wont be buying anything ACT ever again. :o

think maybe it coulda been something to do with his driving style perhaps? or the way it was installed, there has to be something horrible wrong for one to go that fast

I have now ran ACT in both of my engine swaps, with my ZC I went the HD pressure plate and street disk, but ended up burning it up pretty good before I sold the engine. I now use a HD pressure plate and unsprung 6 puck disc in my B16 and it's kinda harsh but I have got used to it and it grabs like a champ. Hope this helps. ACT all the way. I offer ACT through my business and I can quote you a price if your interested. Just drop me a email.
