The ACT SB12-XTSS delivers 532 lb-ft of torque capacity at the crank, making it the strongest street-spec ACT kit available for the WRX platform while still using a sprung hub organic disc for smooth daily engagement. Compatible with 2.5L turbo EJ255, EJ257, FA20, FA24, and JDM EJ25 engines across 5-speed and 6-speed transmissions, the SB12-XTSS is purpose-built for enthusiasts who demand maximum clamping force

high-performance clutch systems trusted by enthusiasts, racers, and professional builders worldwide. ACT engineers every component in-house, using proprietary diaphragm designs, multi-stage heat-treating processes, and precision cover stampings to produce clutch systems that outlast and outperform the competition. The SB12-XTSS is part of ACT's expanded Subaru WRX lineup designed to handle the power demands of tuned and modified EJ and FA series turbo engines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between the ACT SB12-XTSS and the SB12-HDSS for the Subaru WRX?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SB12-XTSS uses ACT's Xtreme pressure plate, which delivers a higher clamp load and 532 lb-ft of torque capacity compared to the SB12-HDSS which uses the Heavy Duty plate and is rated at 449 lb-ft. Both use the Performance Street organic sprung disc for smooth daily engagement, but the SB12-XTSS is the stronger option for more heavily modified or higher-power builds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the ACT SB12-XTSS fit the 2022-2025 Subaru WRX with the FA24 engine?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The SB12-XTSS is compatible with the FA24 turbocharged engine found in the 2022-2025 Subaru WRX, in addition to earlier EJ255, EJ257, FA20, and JDM EJ25 applications across both 5-speed and 6-speed transmissions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWill the ACT SB12-XTSS work on the Subaru WRX STI?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The SB12-XTSS is designed for the Subaru WRX and is not compatible with the STI, which uses a different clutch diameter and transmission specification. ACT offers separate clutch kits specifically engineered for the STI application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs the ACT SB12-XTSS drivable as a daily driver?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The Performance Street organic disc with a sprung hub provides progressive, smooth engagement similar to a factory clutch, making the SB12-XTSS suitable for daily driving even with the Xtreme pressure plate. Pedal effort will be moderately higher than stock but manageable for regular street use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the ACT XACT Prolite flywheel made of and how much does it weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe XACT Prolite flywheel included with the SB12-XTSS is made from chromoly steel and weighs 8.5 pounds. This is significantly lighter than the factory flywheel, reducing rotational inertia and improving throttle response and acceleration feel, particularly in high-rpm applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the ACT SB12-XTSS require any modifications to install on the Subaru WRX?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo modifications are required. The SB12-XTSS is a direct-replacement bolt-on kit designed to fit the factory bell housing and transmission of the 2006-2025 Subaru WRX without cutting, welding, or custom fabrication. Professional installation is recommended given the complexity of clutch and flywheel replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the 240mm upgrade in the SB12-XTSS benefit modified WRX builds?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 240mm clutch diameter increases the contact area between the disc and flywheel, which translates to higher heat capacity, improved torque handling, and longer service life under high-load conditions compared to the factory 230mm system. This makes the SB12-XTSS particularly well-suited for WRX builds running aggressive tunes, upgraded turbochargers, or higher boost levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs the ACT SB12-XTSS covered by a warranty?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. ACT backs the SB12-XTSS with a limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Contact ACT directly or your authorized ACT dealer for warranty claim procedures and terms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the ACT SB12-XTSS fit the Subaru Impreza WRX years 2006-2014?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The SB12-XTSS fits 2006-2014 Subaru Impreza WRX models including the WRX, WRX Limited, WRX Premium, and WRX TR trims across applicable engine and transmission configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLift the vehicle safely and remove the transmission following the factory service manual procedure for the specific WRX model year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove the factory clutch assembly and flywheel from the crankshaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClean the crankshaft mounting surface and inspect the crankshaft rear main seal for leaks before installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstall the ACT XACT Prolite flywheel onto the crankshaft using the provided hardware, torquing to the manufacturer-specified value\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInsert the ACT clutch alignment tool through the disc hub and into the pilot bearing to center the disc precisely\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition the ACT Performance Street disc against the flywheel face with the transmission side facing outward\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstall the ACT Xtreme pressure plate over the disc and torque the bolts to specification in a star pattern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstall the included release bearing into the transmission bell housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReinstall the transmission and reconnect all drivetrain components per factory specification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBed in the clutch with several moderate acceleration and deceleration cycles before applying full power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWARNING:\u003c\/strong\u003e This product can expose you to chemicals including lead and phthalates, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm.
