I need to find a new clutch for my car and was looking for opinions of the available units for the first gen pro's. I was leaning towards a ACT 4 puck race kit, but I am worried about the streetablity of this. I have heard good things about clutchmaster and recently found some info from a place called CAPclutch that has a kit for $225 thats good for 299ft/lbs?
What do you run and what are the performance/drivablity pro's and con's.

act mx-6 clutch
good for 285 ft/lbs torque
you can get it from corksport for $280 but you will have to use the prolx Release Bearing and Pilot Bearing
it will bot right on fine just call corksport and ask they have done it many times

hmmmm Rick....sounds like you're having a little 2 much fun with your GTX conversion!!

'm2cupcar' just installed a www.capclutch.com kit in his pro - you may want to ask him about it...
i also have a kit from them that was for the 1.6 Miata; it came with an Exedy disc - and though it was one of the cheapest places out there, it at least *looks* to be 'good stuff'
maybe the one rated @ 249ftlbs would do the trick??

LOL
It's irresistible, I have to explore the boost at least once a drive!


It was holding, then 4th started to slip on my first highway drive. Then 3rd now 2nd, down the slippery slope we go
I emailed CAP, they said they do not have something that will hold the power They suggested ACT.
I emailed ACT about the MX-6 option as they do not have an Xtream plate for the pro's listed and to find out which MX-6 pressure plate might work. I have heard the 93+ 2.5L V6 MX-6. Can anyone confirm this?
I think 285ft/lbs should be enough?
Anyways, I knew I'd be replacing the clutch, but I was hoping to be doing it later rather than sooner (when I saved up for the LSD). It holds till about 8psi now, so I just have to limp below 8 till the Clutch gets replaced.
