Features:
ACT's performance street sprung disc 3000505 is a performance street disc and the most popular disc purchased. It features premium organic materials with high copper content for better heat transfer. Performance street discs allow for quicker shifting and smooth engagement. These discs feature a reduced marcel for faster shift action to complement ACT pressure plates. ACT spring-centered assemblies use bushings and cone springs similar to factory clutch discs. This creates frictional dampening, which improves clutch life and reduces noise. Quiet operation with increased strength and reliability.
FAQ:
Can an ACT Race puck-style disc be used for daily driving, and is it recommended?
ACT's race discs are very aggressive and provide no-nonsense performance response. As a result, the engagement is harsh. Taking off from a stop can cause judder and/or an uncomfortable noise. These characteristics have no effect on the performance on the clutch or the drive line components. This type of disc should only be used in a professional race setting and never on the street. ACT always recommends using an organic disc on the street because it offers a smoother engagement and a longer lasting performance value for everyday drivers.
When should a clutch disc be replaced?
The majority of new discs measure .312-.315” (7.93 – 8.00mm) thick – fully worn is .275” (7.00mm) or below. A few applications (mostly Audi and BMW) start out at .332 - .335” (8.43 – 8.50mm). These are to be replaced when below .295” (7.50mm). It’s best to measure with a micrometer. Puck discs are measured as-is, where organic street discs are correctly measured by fully compressing the engagement cushion (marcel) between the linings. If the lining rivets on either side of the disc have made contact with the flywheel or pressure plate face, the disc must be replaced. Note: Using a disc that is thicker or thinner than the working range the pressure plate is designed for will have varying, and often very poor, results.

Built motor and need to ensure it wouldn’t slip.
Growing up , I'd hear about ACT high performance clutches.,but Before we get into this I'd like to say THIS CLUTCH DID NOT LAST VERY LONG ( THROUGH NO FAULT OF ACT) I bought the HD pressure plate , and streetlight flywheel as well . Quality , and installation was perfect, and they give you new flywheel and pressure plate bolts plus antiseize. The whole kit for 1100 bucks is well worth the money. I cut it close on my torque ratings 380 ft. Lbs I thought at the wheels, But after a new tune and grimmspeeds equal/unequal length headers , anything after 5000 rpms and the clutch would slip. Again through no fault of ACT. I've built many cars and I'd recommend this clutch setup for anyone under 350wtq. And remember measure twice cut once, it's worth the 300 bucks for a few dyno pulls to figure out what clutch matches to your specifications.
The power I was making started to put wear and tear on the OEM clutch so I went with this new disc and set up to continue pursuing my goals for the build. It has a nice bite to it but feels like a stock clutch. Just make sure you follow all break in guidelines and granny shift for at least 500 miles.
After the stock clutch in my 2015 WRX went out (33,000 miles) I was looking to upgrade to a performance clutch. This clutch grabs very hard and i love it it holds power very well and just made my car feel alive again
