ACT Heavy Duty Race Sprung 6-Pad Clutch Kit for Subaru WRX and EJ-Series Models
The ACT Heavy Duty Race Sprung 6-Pad Clutch Kit for the 2006-2026 Subaru WRX and EJ-series models is the sprung-center version of the 6-pad race kit with the Heavy Duty pressure plate. The spring-center disc damps torsional vibrations while providing the 6-pad’s ceramic heat performance. The most versatile race-oriented configuration in ACT’s HD WRX lineup.
DETAILS
- Pressure plate: ACT Heavy Duty
- Clutch disc: 6-pad spring-centered race
- Disc material: ceramic friction
- Hub: chrome-moly, heat-treated, spring-center
- Spring retainers: wraparound windows, thicker stampings
- Clamp load: Heavy Duty level
- Use case: aggressive street/track, builds requiring heat capacity with compliance
The 6-pad sprung disc combines the ceramic friction material’s heat resistance with the spring-center hub’s vibration damping. The wraparound spring window design and thicker retainer stampings make the spring center more durable under repeated hard engagement than standard spring-hub designs.
Paired with the Heavy Duty pressure plate, this kit is the most aggressive clutch in ACT’s lineup that still maintains meaningful driveline compliance. The result is a clutch that handles track use and high power levels but is less punishing than a rigid disc on the street.

Why Choose ACT
Advanced Clutch Technology has been manufacturing performance clutch systems in the United States since 1993. Every ACT pressure plate uses a proprietary diaphragm design that increases clamp load and reduces deflection compared to OEM units, and every diaphragm goes through a four-stage heat-treating process before it leaves the factory. The result is a clutch system that holds more power than the stock unit, engages more precisely, and lasts longer under the kind of driving that wears factory clutches out quickly. ACT designs each application from scratch rather than modifying OEM tooling, which means the fitment is precise and the performance is intentional. Whether the build is a street-driven daily driver or a dedicated track car, ACT offers a kit at the correct specification for the use.
The RallySport Take
The ACT Heavy Duty 6-pad Sprung race kit is the correct choice for builds that see both track and street use. The ceramic pads provide the heat capacity you need for sustained hard driving, and the spring-center hub construction damps the torsional shocks that rigid discs transmit directly to the drivetrain. ACT’s wraparound spring window design and thicker retainer stampings make the spring center more durable under repeated hard engagement than standard designs. The result is a clutch that performs like a race disc at the track and does not punish you for driving home afterward. Fits Subaru applications 2005,2007-2025.
