The ACT ZX6-XTR6 Xtreme Race Rigid 6 Pad Clutch Kit pairs an ACT Xtreme pressure plate with a 6-pad rigid race disc for the third-generation Mazda RX-7, built for the most demanding drivers. The Xtreme 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 for quicker shifts and smooth, trouble-free service. Engagement is harsher and shifting is faster, and the 6-pad configuration is recommended for larger clutch sizes that need to absorb more heat. The kit also includes ACT's Monoloc, a one-piece direct replacement for the standard two-piece wedge collar and wire ring used in pull-type clutches; its hardened chrome-moly construction and carefully calculated spring tension provide uniform loading on the bearing and pressure plate for consistent alignment regardless of driver input or vehicle modifications.

FAQ
What does the included Monoloc do?
Monoloc is a one-piece, direct replacement for the standard two-piece wedge collar and wire ring used in pull-type clutches. Its hardened chrome-moly construction provides uniform loading on the bearing and pressure plate for consistent alignment, regardless of driver input or vehicle modifications.
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 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 1993 R1 RX-7?
Yes, the ZX6-XTR6 covers the 1993 R1 trim along with Base, R2, and Touring trims across the 1993-1995 third-generation RX-7 fitment range.
