ACT 13-14 Hyundai Genesis Coupe HD/Perf Street Sprung Clutch Kit
The 2013-2014 Genesis Coupe 2.0T responds well to a tune, a bigger intercooler and a freer exhaust, and the factory clutch is usually the first part to tell you it has had enough. If your 2.0T flares in third gear when boost arrives, chatters backing out of a parking spot, or the engagement point has crept to the top of the pedal, ACT HY5-HDSS is a complete street-friendly answer. It pairs ACT's Heavy Duty pressure plate with its sprung Performance Street disc and a matching XACT Streetlite flywheel, and ACT rates the package at 478 ft-lb at the crank, 18 percent over the original clutch.
Holding more torque comes from clamp load and friction, not from a bigger disc. The HY014 Heavy Duty pressure plate uses ACT's own diaphragm design, heat treated in four stages, to raise clamp load and cut deflection so the plate does not soften as it heats. The 3001605 disc is 250 mm (9.8 in) across with a 1 inch input spline, faced with a high-copper organic lining on a steel backing for heat transfer and burst strength. Its sprung hub keeps the drivetrain calm in traffic, which matters on a rear-drive car with a long driveshaft.
ACT calls this a conversion kit: it must run the 600990 XACT Streetlite flywheel that comes in the box, so the stock flywheel does not go back in. The full kit also includes the RB012 release bearing, PB1007 pilot bearing and AT23 alignment tool, and the whole package weighs 37.7 lb. Every assembly is clamp-load tested and spin balanced to within 0.25 oz-in.
Do a fourth gear roll-on from low rpm at full throttle on a safe, empty road. If rpm rises sharply while the car barely accelerates, the clutch is slipping. Hard shifting can also come from air in the clutch hydraulics, a leaking slave or master cylinder, or the wrong gear oil, so check those first. Oil on the bellhousing from a rear main seal will contaminate any new disc, so fix the leak during the job. Our slipping diagnosis guide walks through separating clutch slip from other drivetrain faults.
This listing is for the 2013-2014 Hyundai Genesis Coupe with the 2.0 liter turbo four and manual transmission. ACT's chart lists the 2.0T, 2.0T Premium and 2.0T R-Spec trims for both years. It is not listed for the 3.8 liter V6 cars, and 2010-2012 coupes use different ACT kit numbers, so check the year before ordering. If your car has an engine or gearbox swap, send us the year and VIN and we will confirm. Compare other options in our rebuild kits department, including the Clutch Masters FX250 kit for the same 2.0T.
Expect pedal effort to rise about 15 to 40 percent over stock, which ACT says is normal for its Heavy Duty plates. A universal clutch alignment tool kit is handy if you keep a spare for future jobs.
