The ACT ZX2-HDR6 Heavy Duty Race Rigid 6 Pad Clutch Kit pairs ACT's most popular Heavy Duty pressure plate with a 6-pad rigid race disc for the first-generation Mazda RX-7. The Heavy Duty pressure plate uses an exclusive diaphragm design to increase clamp load and reduce deflection, with every diaphragm undergoing ACT's four-stage heat-treating process and precision cover stampings for rigidity and consistency. The 6-pad rigid race disc uses high-quality ceramic friction material on a heat-treated chrome-moly hub; the lightweight rigid design allows for quicker shifts and smooth, trouble-free service. Engagement is harsher and shifting is faster than a spring-centered disc, and the 6-pad configuration is recommended for larger clutch sizes that need to absorb more heat.

FAQ
What's the benefit of a rigid disc over a spring-centered disc?
The rigid, ceramic-faced disc on a heat-treated chrome-moly hub is lighter and allows quicker shifts than a spring-centered disc, at the cost of some torsional damping.
Does this kit cover both the 1983-1985 SA22C and 1986-1991 FC RX-7 chassis?
Yes, the ZX2-HDR6 spans both first-generation RX-7 chassis, from the 1983 GS/GSL/S/Limited Edition trims through the 1991 Base and Convertible trims.
Does the kit include a pilot bearing and release bearing?
Pilot bearing and release bearing are included on applications where the vehicle requires them.
Does this kit fit the 1987 GXL 2+2 RX-7?
Yes, the ZX2-HDR6 covers the 1987-1990 GXL 2+2 trim along with the full range of Base, Convertible, GS, GSL, GSL-SE, GTU, GTUs, GXL, Limited Edition, LX, S, SE, and Sport trims across the confirmed 1983-1991 fitment range.
