I knew a guy that had one of those in his supra and in traffic jams he'd have to wait for the car ahead of him to move pretty far ahead so he could let off the clutch so he wouldn't run into him. He hated it.

I have an ACT XT-SS (xt) pressure plate and (ss) clutch disk and I love it! It's a little harsh and doesn't have hardly any slip, but I wouldn't go any more extreme than that.

i have an identical setup.. and i run nitrous... (little shot) and i love it... you have to ask yourself.. HMM why do i want a race clutch in my street car??? you mentioned swap... are you also gonna run some huge turbo, and nitro methanol... or like a 200 shot or something.. no disrespect.. but why the hell would you even consider a race clutch for street driving.. now if you are building a race car.. then that would be a good choice... call act tell them your intent.. and they will tell you EXACTLY what to get.. but my guess is.. ACT street strip also.. i love it..:thumbup:

I personally dont like aftermarket clutches unless you're turbo or something.
I would got with a Type R clutch and P plate. It'll hold up to 230hp.

i was talking to a guy from action clutches and he told me to go with the 6 puck unsprung
i guess thats not a good idea
i guess ill call act and see what they say
or maybe an exedy clutch since there close to stock and are inexpensive
