ACT Heavy Duty Race Rigid 6 Pad Clutch Kit for BMW Z3 1996-2002 and 1998-2002 3 Series Models

The ACT 01-03 BMW 330i/330Ci/325xi / BMW 530i Base 3.0 L6 HD/Race Rigid 6 Pad Clutch Kit is designed for high-performance driving and demanding racing conditions. This kit features ACT's most popular Heavy Duty pressure plate, which utilizes an exclusive diaphragm design to enhance clamp load, reduce deflection, and extend clutch life. Each component undergoes a four-stage heat-treating process, ensuring durability and reliable performance under high temperatures. The precision cover stampings contribute to increased rigidity and consistency, resulting in smoother engagement and improved overall clutch operation.
The kit includes ACT’s 6-pad rigid race discs, crafted from high-quality ceramic friction materials that offer superior heat resistance. The chrome-moly hub is heat-treated for enhanced strength and durability, supporting aggressive driving and repeated high-RPM shifts. The lightweight, rigid construction of the assembly allows for quicker shifts and smoother service, making it ideal for race and spirited street use. Engagement is notably harsher with the 6-pad disc, which aids in faster shifting but may produce increased gear rattle and pedal effort. While the rigid design can lead to more spline wear over time, it is optimized for larger clutch sizes to absorb greater heat generated during intense driving.
This clutch kit is engineered for race use, offering increased clamp load, aggressive engagement, and high heat tolerance, all backed by ACT's industry-leading one-year warranty. It is carefully assembled and dynamically balanced to ensure high RPM reliability and smooth operation. Suitable for BMW Z3 models from 1996 to 2002 and various 2000-2002 3 Series vehicles, the kit provides a reliable upgrade for enthusiasts seeking maximum performance and durability in demanding driving scenarios.

Features:

  • Heavy Duty pressure plate with exclusive diaphragm design for increased clamp load and reduced deflection
  • Ceramic friction materials in 6-pad rigid race discs for high heat tolerance and durability
  • Chrome-moly hub heat-treated for strength and longevity
  • Lightweight, rigid design for quicker shifts and smooth operation
  • Engineered for race use with aggressive engagement and high RPM reliability
