The ACT XT/Race Rigid 4 Pad Clutch Kit for the BMW M3 E46 (2001-2006) is a high-performance clutch system designed for demanding driving conditions. It features an Xtreme pressure plate engineered to maximize clamp load and reduce deflection, ensuring reliable power transfer during aggressive driving. The kit includes ACT's 4-pad rigid race disc, which offers increased durability and heat resistance. ACT's exclusive diaphragm design enhances performance by providing a higher clamp force, while the four-stage heat-treating process ensures long-lasting strength and consistency. Precision cover stampings contribute to the overall rigidity of the assembly, making this clutch kit suitable for track use or high-stress applications.

This clutch kit is specifically designed for the BMW M3 E46 chassis from 2001 to 2006, compatible with models equipped with the appropriate engine configuration. It serves as a direct replacement upgrade for stock clutch components, offering improved engagement and durability for spirited driving or racing. Installation is typically bolt-on, with all necessary components included in the kit. Ideal for track days, performance driving, or heavy-duty street use, this clutch system provides a reliable solution for drivers seeking increased performance and longevity under demanding conditions.

Overview

2001-2006 BMW M3 E46 XT/Race Rigid 4-Pad Clutch Kit by ACT

BM9-XTR4 kit features an Xtreme pressure plate for the most demanding driver, and ACT's 4 pad rigid race disc.

ACT Xtreme pressure plates use exclusive diaphragm design to increase clamp load, reduce deflection and maximize clutch life. All diaphragms endure a four-stage, heat-treating process for unparalleled performance. ACT pressure plates have precision cover stampings to provide rigidity and consistency.

ACT's 4-pad rigid race discs are made with high quality, ceramic friction materials. The chrome-moly hub is heat-treated for strength and durability. The lightweight, rigid design allows for quicker shifts and smooth, trouble-free service. With the 4-pad rigid race disc, engagement is harsher, but shifting is faster. The 4-pad rigid race disc is well-suited for the smaller disc sizes in smaller engines.

ACT clutches deliver the maximum holding power through applying a series of sound engineering advancements to new — not rebuilt — components that maximize load and reduce flex. The result is maximum torque capacity, long life and clean, fast shifting.
