ACT BM9-XTG6 XT/Race Sprung 6-Pad Clutch Kit for 2001-2006 BMW M3

BM9-XTG6 kit features an Xtreme pressure plate for the most demanding driver. 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 6-pad spring-centered race disc features a spring-center construction to properly damp torsional vibrations and resist failure under harsh conditions. ACT spring retainers utilize wraparound spring windows and thicker retainer stampings to provide spring support, reduce stress concentrations, and increase strength and reliability. With the 6-pad spring-centered race disc, engagement is harsher, but shifting is faster. The 6-pad spring-centered disc is recommended for larger clutch sizes to absorb more heat. XT/Race Sprung 6 Pad Moderate to heavy pedal effort, aggressive engagement, OE to mild gear rattle; Moderate friction life, extended by ACT's exclusive diaphragm design; Carefully engineered, precisely assembled, accurately balanced, uses select ceramic friction materials for high heat tolerance and maximum performance; Recommended for high horsepower street or race use; 100% clamp load tested and dynamically computer balanced for smooth high RPM reliability

• "Excellence in Performance", backed by the best one-year warranty in the industry!

The ACT BM9-XTG6 XT/Race Sprung 6-Pad Clutch Kit is engineered for high-horsepower street and race applications requiring increased clamp load, heat tolerance, and reliable operation under demanding conditions. This complete automotive clutch kit features an ACT Xtreme pressure plate paired with a spring-centered 6-pad race disc for aggressive engagement and fast shifting performance.

The Xtreme pressure plate uses an exclusive diaphragm design to increase clamp load, reduce deflection, and help maximize clutch life. Each diaphragm undergoes a four-stage heat-treating process, while precision cover stampings improve rigidity and consistency. The pressure plate is 100% clamp-load tested and dynamically computer balanced for dependable high-RPM operation.

The spring-centered 6-pad disc helps damp torsional vibrations and resist failure during severe use. Reinforced spring retainers use wraparound spring windows and thicker stampings to improve spring support, reduce stress concentrations, and increase strength. Engagement is harsher than an original-equipment clutch, with moderate to heavy pedal effort and the potential for mild gear rattle. Select ceramic friction materials provide high heat tolerance, while ACT's exclusive diaphragm design helps support moderate friction life. The 6-pad configuration is recommended for larger clutch sizes and applications that must absorb increased heat.

ACT BM9-XTG6 fitment covers the 2001-2006 BMW M3, including E46 applications. The kit is backed by ACT's one-year warranty and is designed for drivers seeking durable, precisely assembled, and accurately balanced clutch performance.
