The ACT BM9-XTSS clutch kit is engineered for 2001-2006 BMW M3 models and combines an Xtreme pressure plate with a Performance street sprung disc for dependable street and race use. Designed for demanding drivers, this kit delivers increased clamp load, reduced pressure plate deflection, and extended clutch life while maintaining smooth, predictable engagement. The moderate-to-heavy pedal effort provides a performance-oriented driving feel with excellent control and OE to mild gear rattle characteristics.
The ACT Xtreme pressure plate uses an exclusive diaphragm design and a four-stage heat-treating process to support consistent performance under demanding conditions. Precision-stamped cover components improve rigidity and manufacturing consistency, while every pressure plate is clamp-load tested and dynamically computer balanced for smooth, high-RPM reliability. The carefully engineered assembly helps provide dependable engagement and long friction life for performance street applications.
The included ACT Performance street sprung disc uses premium organic friction materials with high copper content to improve heat transfer and reduce fade. Steel-backed friction linings increase burst strength and durability, while reduced marcel supports faster shift action and complements the Xtreme pressure plate. The sprung hub design helps promote quiet operation with increased strength and reliability. ACT backs its performance clutch products with a one-year warranty, providing additional confidence in the BM9-XTSS kit.
