The Z65-XTG6 kit features an Xtreme pressure plate for the most demanding driver. ACT Xtreme pressure plates use an exclusive diaphragm design to increase clamp load, reduce deflection, and maximize clutch life, with all diaphragms undergoing a four-stage heat-treating process. ACT's 6-pad spring-centered race disc uses a spring-center construction to properly damp torsional vibrations and resist failure under harsh conditions. Spring retainers use wraparound spring windows and thicker retainer stampings to reduce stress concentrations and increase strength and reliability. With the 6-pad spring-centered race disc, engagement is harsher but shifting is faster; it is recommended for larger clutch sizes to absorb more heat.
