Arghh, ACT Disk No fit inside Pressure Plate!

Recommended Posts

I just bolted up my Fidanza flywheel and took off my 225mm ACT pressure plate and solid 6-puck disc to replace it with a sprung 6-puck disc. The new ACT disc appears to be 225mm and the ACT Pressure Plate is 225mm but the sprung center section of the disc wont fit into the pressure plate!

 

I don't know what the deal is. I emailed ACT with all the part numbers. We will see. Worst part is that the disc is a brand new but has sat in my garage for over a year now. I don't even remember where I bought it.

 

Frustration.

 

To do list:

-Clutch

-Test fit Hokes Z32 tranny for exhaust clearance

-install OBX LSD, diff seals, and shim diff

-regrease 280ZX axles

-find 280ZX 5-speed if Z32 wont clear.

-short shift kit

-install camber bushings in rear control arms

-wait for ice and snow to melt, and wait for rain to wash away road salt.

This turned into a "while I'm at it".....I will be selling my 225mm ACT Pressure Plate with 40% used solid 6-puck disc. The whole setup has less than 15K miles on it. It's in good condition. I was going to re-use it but since my new disc doesnt fit, I upped to a 240mm pressure plate which will also fit the new fidanza flywheel. This is not the for sale section and I don't have photos of it yet but I will post tonight. Price will be very reasonable.

 

The setup was rated to about 400+ft-lbs by ACT.

Yup, ACT recently changed their pressure plate design when they went to in-house manufacturing, so my 5 year old pressure plate will not work with sprung-centered discs. My pressure plate will only fit the solid ACT racing discs.

 

Here is their email:

Dave,

 

Thank you for your e-mail and support of ACT products. A few years back we started manufacturing everything in house. We have changed the design on our discs as well as the pressure plates. With the use of our current sprung centered discs, you will need to use our current pressure plate as well. Attached below is a list of kits with power ratings and breakdown of individual component part numbers. If you have any other questions, please contact us using the information below.
