I recently picked up a new ACT 225mm full faced organic disc. Their "Performance Street Disc" part number 3000203. I plan to use it with a new Exedy RB street strip pressure plate, believing it to possess the same or similar grip to an ACT HD pressure plate so I am expecting to get their advertised 268ft/lbs of torque capacity or very near to it. I already had the p-plate lying around but needed a better street disc so after looking around a little I chose the ACT.

I thought long and hard about putting it in the REPU as a better clutch combo than its previous miserable setup but considered my budget and needing to get the REPU, the FB and the GLC running again. I'll go with another stock pressure plate in the REPU but this time a stock disc. I don't expect torque levels to be higher than maybe just maybe 140ft/lbs, which I'm sure the stock combination can handle. And if it slips, I'll deal with it then.
