today i finally installed my new clutch along with my act streetlite flywheel. asking around to the knowlegable people on this board , they said to look into the action 2md as it would most likey be the highest hp and tq holding single disc for the y8 . my goals are 400whp with the sohc so i went with the 2md. i later on found out the 2ms was a sprung disc...but today i found out that an unsprung disc isnt so bad . anyway the pressure plate and disc looked very nice . packaging was real nice and wasnt just thrown together . the kit comes with the pressure plate , disc , aligntment tool , pilot bearing and throwout bearing . and of course a couple of stickers . installing the clutch and flywheel were strait foreward . finally got everything done around 8pm and got to take it for a spin . first impression i felt was pedal feel . it feels real nice and was surprisingly light on the leg for being unsprung . pedal feel is gradual meaning it gets harder as it gets closer to the ground . but im very happy with pedal feel. the clutch grabs like a fat girl grabs a twinkie....but is very forgiving and can ride the clutch depending on the situation . not like an on-off switch at all. the only real drawback i found today was the amount of chatter in first , but i asume thats a normal 6 puck thing? anyway if your considering a clutch for a higher horsepower car . or a stock car **** action has clutches to suit all needs . i seriously recoment action for your next clutch.

cliff notes - action 2md clutch is the ****!!!!!

i have a couple pics of the clutch installed i will post tomorow or the next.

 

"the clutch grabs like a fat girl grabs a twinkie" lmfao, good to hear u guys got that damn tranny in there.

 

hell ya . now fix your god damn turbo!

 

bump

 

Im running the same clutch, i love it, its harsh as hell at first (especially going from stock to 6 puck unsprung) but it kinda breaks in over time. And yes it does grab harder than a ****, before the turbo install i could chirp 4th gear with a stock d15b

 

good to hear! I have the 2MD along with ACT 12lb flywheel as well... can't wait to try it out... and it matches my block

 

Action makes top notch cluthes. Much more linear/gradual pedal feel than ACT. Heres mine!!!

yep, i have an action clutch too. and after so much "abuse" it still grabs like no other. :knock on wood:

 

I love my 2md also..It was harsh at first, now its nice and smooth. No chatter though anytime.

Im at 300whp and no problems at all. It still feels really strong, like it can hold a ton more.

2md gets and from me!

 

I love my 2 MS

 

Yup, it's an awsome clutch, good price too.

Your's doesn't make that horrible screeching noise if you slip it? Mine does, well only sometimes. .

 

I love mine! Very streetable, and I'm hoping to make almost 600hp with it.

mine does that and its a 1ms (6puck metallic disc sprung).
for some off reason, mine engages really high (almost before you let off the pedal) and it slipped at the track. i broke it in too...
i guess i had a bad experience (maybe installer error).

 

u just need to adjust it.

 

ya mine chatters real bad....but it doesnt make that noise that everyone talks about....

 

I'm sure almost all 6 puck clutches chatter, especially those with solid hubs. My old ACT 6 puck disc would chatter with my ZC setup.

Its just something to get used to I guess.

 

this **** gets violent lol!!! naw i guess ill get used to it.

 

Great clutch, that is what I run!

 

how does your chatter?? has it gotton better ?

 

great clutch ! i run it.

became a little bitchy for a while, where it wasnt engaging nicely but it seems to have fixed itself.

 

does your guys's clutches make the squeeking noise when you engage it? mine doesnt.....

 

Nope.

 

it only does that if you over gas it! and slip it too much.

mine was doing that more so when it was acting up but like I said.its gone now.

 

I have a 2KS, no chatter or noise at all.

 

all the reviews about the 2md...what about the 2 ms...this is what i'm going to put into my bro's hatch and i'm also thinking about getting the 2ms for my teg too...
