Sku: Z66-HDG4
ACT
Product Description: HD/Race Sprung 4 Pad Clutch Kit
The HD/Race Sprung 4 Pad Clutch Kit, designated as Z66-HDG4, is engineered by ACT to provide exceptional performance in high horsepower street or race applications. Weighing 13.7 pounds, this kit boasts a torque capacity of 355 ft/lbs, exceeding OE standards by 87%. It features a ceramic clutch disc material with an 8.8-inch (224mm) diameter and an input shaft diameter of 0.9375 inches.
At its core, this kit features ACT's renowned Heavy Duty pressure plate, utilizing an exclusive diaphragm design to increase clamp load, reduce deflection, and maximize clutch life. Each diaphragm undergoes a meticulous four-stage heat-treating process for unmatched performance. Precision cover stampings ensure rigidity and consistency for reliable operation.
Paired with the pressure plate is ACT's 4-pad spring-centered race disc, featuring a spring center to properly damp torsional vibrations for quieter operation and resist failure even 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. The 4-pad spring-centered race disc delivers harsher engagement but faster shifting, making it ideal for smaller disc sizes in smaller engines.
Key Features:
- Feel: Light to moderate pedal effort, aggressive engagement, with OE to mild gear rattle.
- Life: Moderate friction life, extended by ACT's exclusive diaphragm design.
- Quality: Carefully engineered, precisely assembled, accurately balanced, using select ceramic friction materials for high heat tolerance and maximum performance.
- Recommended Use: Specifically designed for high horsepower street or race use, catering to performance enthusiasts seeking uncompromising performance.
- ACT Difference: Rigorously tested, ensuring 100% clamp load and dynamically computer balanced for smooth operation even at high RPMs.
Vehicle Fitment: This clutch kit is compatible with a wide range of vehicles, including various Mazda and Ford models from the 1993 to 2003 model years. Compatible vehicles include:
- 1993-2003 Ford Probe Base, SE
- 1993-2003 Mazda 626 DX, LX
- 1993-2003 Mazda MX-6 Base
- 2001-2003 Mazda Protege DX, ES, LX, Mazdaspeed
- 2002 Mazda Protege5 Base

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.
