1999 GSR ACT HDSS Clutch Blew Apart
Sorry no picture yet.
My ACT HDSS clutch blew apart today. How do I know, the same thing happened to my friends GSR and my Del Sol. I tried to shift both cars exactly the same noise and feeling from the car. The little tabs that hold the springs in place break off and now I have a spring moving around my clutch and flywheel.
The clutch had been in the car about 70,000 miles. The car is NA and was drag raced years ago.
I am thinking of getting an Action Clutch either the 1KS or 1MS. Anyone have good or bad input on these?

Stock OEM is the only clutch that will go over $100K in miles.
I have used ACT and Competition Clutch....and ACT has lasted longer between those 2.
I used Action Clutch back in the late 90's...with their Dual Diaphram Pressure Plate and 8 puc disc...and I always use to break diffs with this clutch on a cable b-series tranny.
