pressure plate for 1st gen
 

I was wondering if knew knew if ACT or centerforce makes an uprated pressure plate for the 1st gens? ...specifically a '92 16-valve SOHC? if not the sohc, do they for the dohc?

I'm putting on some new stuff, and hp will prolly be around ~150 afterwards. Already, the clutch starts to slip after a short time of running the car hard. More horses? Yeah, it's going to slip pretty bad when it -does- start to slip. :shift:
Me no like.

The guy I spoke to from mazda motorsports said that he couldn't find anything from ACT for the 1st gens in the catalogue. I forgot what he said about centerforce... Also, the same guy said to goto a dealership and ask to see if the pressure plate from the sohc 1.8 2nd gens can mate with the 1st gen flywheel. Anyone know if this is possible?:confused: Want to know before I go to the dealer.


Thanks for the input, dudes. :bt:

Looks like ACT does carry them. A bit spendy, though...

The plate itself is MZ021 at $238,
and the kit is ZP1-HD00 at $328.

Might as well just get the kit for the extra ninety dollars. :P
Mind you, this is for the sohc.

Though, thinking about it, the faq says that the Fseries tranny came with the sohc engines, does this include the 16-valve sohc?
I'm assuming "yes," but I want to make sure.


Well, at least I know where to get a good clutch. Although, at that price, I may decide to stick with the stock equip for a while. I do need to get my flywheel resurfaced. I should have done it before I stuck the new engine in, but I forgot. :doh:
I may send it to get lightened and balanced while it's out. *shrug* Dunno.
