Upgrade your 1996-1997 Honda Civic del Sol with the ACT Heavy Duty HD/Race Sprung 4 Pad Clutch Kit, part number HC8-HDG4. This clutch kit features ACT's most popular heavy-duty pressure plate, designed with an exclusive diaphragm system that increases clamp load, reduces deflection, and maximizes clutch longevity. Each diaphragm undergoes a rigorous four-stage heat-treating process, ensuring exceptional performance and durability under demanding driving conditions. The precision cover stampings provide added rigidity and consistency, contributing to smooth engagement and reliable operation. The 4-pad spring-centered race disc includes a spring-center to dampen torsional vibrations, resulting in quieter operation and improved durability even in harsh environments. ACT’s spring retainers feature wraparound spring windows and thicker stampings that support the springs, reduce stress concentrations, and enhance overall strength and reliability. While the engagement tends to be more aggressive, shifting remains quick, making this clutch ideal for high-horsepower street and race applications. The kit employs carefully selected ceramic friction materials capable of withstanding high heat, providing a balance of performance and friction life. It is 100% clamp load tested and dynamically computer-balanced for smooth, high-RPM operation, helping ensure reliable performance during spirited driving or racing. This clutch kit is engineered for performance and longevity, backed by ACT’s industry-leading one-year warranty, and designed specifically to fit 1996-1997 Honda Civic del Sol models. Its construction and features make it a dependable upgrade for enthusiasts seeking improved clutch response, durability, and consistent performance in demanding driving scenarios.
