Introducing the VW9-HDSS HD/Perf Street Sprung Clutch Kit by ACT, designed to deliver exceptional performance and durability for both street and race applications.

The VW9-HDSS kit features ACT's renowned Heavy Duty pressure plate paired with their popular Performance Street disc. The Heavy Duty pressure plate utilizes an exclusive diaphragm design to increase clamp load, reduce deflection, and maximize clutch life. Each diaphragm undergoes a four-stage heat-treating process, ensuring unparalleled performance and longevity. Precision cover stampings provide rigidity and consistency for smooth engagement and reliable power transfer.

The Performance Street disc is crafted with premium organic materials containing a high copper content for enhanced heat transfer. Its steel-backed lining offers greater burst strength and durability, while reduced marcel allows for faster shift action, complementing the ACT pressure plate. This combination results in a clutch kit that offers a light to moderate pedal effort, smooth positive engagement, and minimal gear rattle.

Key Features:

  • Heavy Duty pressure plate for increased clamp load and reduced deflection
  • Performance Street disc with premium organic friction materials for enhanced heat tolerance and reduced fade
  • Exclusive diaphragm design for extended clutch life
  • Precision cover stampings for consistent rigidity

Specifications:

  • Product Weight: 32.5 lbs.
  • Torque Capacity: 500 ft/lbs. (58% over OE)
  • Clutch Disc Diameter: 9.4 inches (240mm)
  • Input Shaft Diameter: 0.9375 inches
  • Pressure Plate Type: Heavy Duty
  • Flywheel Type: Streetlite
  • Warranty: 12 Months

Recommended for both street and race use, the VW9-HDSS kit undergoes rigorous testing, including 100% clamp load testing and dynamic computer balancing, ensuring smooth operation and reliability even at high RPMs.

Vehicle Fitment:

  • Various Volkswagen models including GTI and Golf R from 2015 to 2019

Experience the ACT difference with the VW9-HDSS HD/Perf Street Sprung Clutch Kit - the ultimate choice for drivers seeking superior performance and reliability in their high-performance vehicles.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are ACT clutches balanced?

Yes! All ACT clutch assemblies are computer spin balanced to within .25 oz-in to guarantee help smooth operation across the entire RPM range. For comparison, stock production clutches are typically balanced to within .50 oz-in. Lower is definitely better!

Will an ACT clutch increase pedal effort?

ACT pressure plates are specifically designed to handle high torque applications. With ACT's durable design, expect an increase in pedal effort between 15-40% (Heavy Duty) and 50-80% (Xtreme), depending on the application. Clutches developed with less pedal effort often result in a lack of longevity, torque capacity and/or engagement quality.

Do ACT clutches require a break-in period?

For organic street discs, we recommend breaking in the clutch for 300-500 miles with mild engagement, such as stop-and-go city driving prior to racing or spirited driving. ACT race discs usually only require a few hard slips to lap in the surfaces prior to normal driving or racing. Do not overheat the clutch during the break-in period, as this can result in friction surfaces fusing together, hot spots, and friction surface glazing.

Are ACT clutches repairable or rebuildable?

In some situations, rebuilds or repairs may be possible (see warranty), after inspection of the clutch assembly. Please contact our technical department for further information. Because of special modifications, we do not recommend servicing by a general clutch rebuilder.

How much does an ACT clutch weigh?

The weight of the ACT clutch assembly will usually be the same as a stock OEM clutch assembly.
