S5 TII ACT Xtreme PP Owners
Is there anyone out there with an S5 TII Transmission in their car, that has broken a clutch pivot ball using the ACT XTREME Pressure Plate? I have done some searching and can only find threads of S4 owners breaking the pivot ball. I am wondering if it is worth it to buy the S5 fork and S5 pivot ball.
I e-mailed Mazdatrix to find out if the S4 TII & S5 TII pivot ***** are the same, here is what I got back.
CLUTCH FORK PIVOT 89-92 TURBO 16-1020-N310 $20.81
CLUTCH FORK 89-92 TURBO 16-5200-N310 $24.74

With the S4 and S5 arms sitting on the table, they seem to have a different pivot height. This may or may not work, but at the very least, you will have to adjust the push rod length at the clutch pedal. If your clutch master and slave are old, this will probably cause them to fail because they will now be operating in a different range than they are used to.

Does anyone know of a heavier duty pivot ball?
I recently had to change mine due to it completely breaking in 2. I didn't think the ACT HD pressure plate would cause a problem or maybe it's just a stress fracture.
I hope the new pivot ball is strenghened a bit. No complaint since it has lasted a long time. If anyone has a seen a 87-88 TII and a 89-91 TII pivot ball , it's a big difference! The 89-91 is much larger.
