I actually have another setup I'm selling of a friend's wrecked R53 that has the stage 2 full face Kevlar discuss. He loved it. Haven't gotten around to getting pics of it yet.
Oh no, the clutch was no where near gone. I loved the setup, but for the street, it was a little tiring. I only changed it out because I wanted to go back to stock. It's just easier, more comfortable. Plus, I had an oil pan leak I was fixing at the same time.

I have a 6-speed in an R50 and I'm hoping to find a setup that's much lighter, so closer to what a stock R50 setup weighs, while still being very drivable for a daily driver.
Unfortunately, no. I waited and waited and waited for the ACT setup (disk and PP) to be released when I bought the flywheel, and ultimately had to go with the CM setup.
With that being said, I have installed quite a few of the ACT setups in other cars, and they have always performed very well. Probably the most comparable would be a SC'd Miata. I can't remember if it was an NA or NB, or 1.6 or 1.8, but again, it worked very well.
One thing I did notice with the CM was that it wanted to be on or off (one big reason I went back to stock). I am guessing that was the compound, but maybe the PP. I have never had that with an ACT setup.
If you are looking to use this on a non-S model, I would think it would be a good match.
EDIT: I do not know if this will bolt up to a naturally aspirated crank. I'm embarrassed to say, but I just don't know.

Thanks for the extra info. Most folks seem to say good things about the ACT setup. If I end up picking this up I think its either the ACT clutch and pressure plate or an Exedy one from their single mass flywheel conversion kit.
This won't fit the normal R50, but since mine has a 6-speed from an R53, it will bolt right up.
