Fitment Information: This clutch kit is designed for 2003 - 2006 Nissan 350z and 2003 - 2006 Infiniti G35 models. Features: The ACT NZ1 - HDG6 kit comes with a rigid 6 - pad race clutch disc and a popular heavy - duty pressure plate. You'll experience light to moderate pedal effort with an aggressive engagement, and it can handle up to 580 ft/lbs of torque in your Nissan or Infiniti. It's perfect for high - horsepower street driving or racing. The ACT Heavy Duty pressure plates use an exclusive diaphragm design. This design boosts the clamp load, reduces deflection, and extends the clutch life. All diaphragms go through a four - stage heat - treating process for top - notch performance. The pressure plates have precision cover stampings for rigidity and consistency. The 6 - pad, spring - centered race disc has a spring - center to dampen torsional vibrations and resist failure in tough conditions. The spring retainers have wraparound spring windows and thicker stampings to support the springs, reduce stress, and increase strength and reliability. With this disc, the engagement is harsher but shifting is faster. It's recommended for larger clutch sizes to absorb more heat. Feel: Light to moderate pedal effort, aggressive engagement, with OE to mild gear rattle. Recommended Use: Ideal for high - horsepower street or race use. Torque Capacity (ft/lbs.): 580. ACT Difference: 100% clamp load tested and dynamically computer - balanced for smooth high RPM reliability.

Using the ACT Heavy Duty 6 - Puck Sprung Clutch Kit is straightforward. First, make sure your vehicle is a 2003 - 2006 Nissan 350z or 2003 - 2006 Infiniti G35. When installing, use the alignment tool provided to ensure proper alignment of the clutch disc. The pilot bushing and release bearing should be installed according to the vehicle's manual. When driving, expect a light to moderate pedal effort and an aggressive engagement. You might notice a bit of gear rattle, but that's normal. This clutch kit is great for high - horsepower driving, whether on the street or the race track. As for maintenance, keep an eye on the clutch performance. If you notice a decrease in shifting smoothness or an increase in pedal effort, it might be time for a check - up. Since the clutch can handle up to 580 ft/lbs of torque, don't exceed this limit to avoid premature wear. Also, make sure to drive smoothly and avoid sudden, harsh engagements as much as possible to prolong the life of the clutch.
