Construction & Design

The ACT Xtreme pressure plate features a heavy-duty, high-strength steel cover and a diaphragm spring engineered for maximum clamp load. The diaphragm is meticulously heat-treated through a four-stage process, which significantly enhances its resilience against thermal stress and mechanical fatigue. The cover stampings are precisely manufactured to ensure a tight fit and consistent pressure distribution across the clutch disc.

This pressure plate is designed with a focus on durability and performance, incorporating advanced manufacturing techniques such as TIG welding and CAD development to ensure perfect alignment and fitment. Its robust construction helps prevent warping or cracking, even during high-RPM shifts or aggressive launches. The overall design promotes a more direct and responsive clutch pedal feel, giving drivers greater confidence and control during spirited driving or racing events.

Installation & Fitment

The ACT Extreme Clutch Pressure Plate is a bolt-on upgrade designed to fit directly onto the factory flywheel of the Nissan 370Z (2015 model). Installation typically requires standard mechanical skills, and it is recommended to replace the clutch disc simultaneously for optimal performance. No cutting, drilling, or special modifications are necessary, making it a straightforward upgrade for qualified technicians or experienced DIY enthusiasts.

Proper installation ensures maximum performance and longevity. It is advisable to follow the manufacturer's torque specifications and installation procedures to achieve the best results.
