Received HA3-HDSS instead of HA3-SPSS

kamozee · Jul 24, 2012

So I ordered an ACT HA3-SPSS clutch kit and the company sent me an HA3-HDSS instead. I can swap it for the SPSS or keep the HDSS. Does anyone have any feedback on this kit?

I drive in a fair bit of traffic for no more than 1 hour a few times a week

What's the difference? One street and one for track?

Both are street. The difference is the pressure plate. HDSS has a heavy duty plate giving 41% clamp load increase. SPSS has a sport pressure plate with 25% clamp load increase. Everything else in the kit is the same. Both have 275 ft/lbs of torque and performance sprung discs.

I also have a streetlite flywheel that I will be pairing with this kit

I have the HA3-XTSD cause I didn't want to go to a puck disc, and I personally think it is just fine. It was tricky to get used to but have had it for a few years and it's like nothing after a while, so I would say you are more than fine.

I have had the HA3-SDSS before (First clutch kit from them) and I thought that was a breeze. My suggestion is keep it. ESPECIALLY if they didn't charge you the difference. It's not too difficult in my opinion.

Thanks for the help guys, I'll install the HDSS and post reviews in the proper section after doing so

Good, someone local to get feedback from about a clutch setup.

Hope it works well for you, Fairoze.

I have the same clutch set-up and it's really great. The pedal isn't crazy stiff and it grabs quite hard. During the break in period you will notice a loud "thump" with that specific pressure plate. Do not be alarmed it's normal and will go away with time.
