ACT 1996 Nissan 200SX XT/Race Sprung 6 Pad Clutch Kit
The ACT NX9-XTG6 pairs an Xtreme pressure plate with a six-pad sprung ceramic race disc for front-wheel-drive Nissans built around the SR20DE, including the 1995-1998 200SX SE-R named in our listing. The same kit covers the Sentra SE-R, NX 2000 and Infiniti G20. Owners shopping for it usually have a turbo or built SR20DE that overpowers a street clutch, or a track car that keeps glazing organic discs.
The Xtreme pressure plate adds clamp load, and the ceramic pads hold friction at temperatures that would fade an organic disc. ACT rates the NX9-XTG6 at 410 ft-lb at the crank, 136 percent over the factory clutch. The disc is 214 mm (8.4 in) with a 0.8125 in input spline, and the kit weighs 11.4 lb.
The sprung hub is what keeps this kit usable on the street. Springs in the disc center absorb some of the shock from an abrupt engagement, so the axles and mounts on a light front-driver take less abuse. ACT still describes the feel as moderate to heavy pedal effort, aggressive engagement and OE to mild gear rattle, and recommends it for high-horsepower street or race use. On a mostly stock SE-R it will feel grabby in traffic.
A wide-open pull in third from low rpm is the quickest test: if the tach outruns the speedometer, the disc is slipping. Before pulling the transaxle, check the clutch hydraulics for leaks, air or old fluid, since a dragging or soft pedal can look like a clutch problem. Our slipping diagnosis guide walks through the road test, and our flare vs. slip guide helps separate true slip from other drivability issues. Our manual repair cost guide shows what a full clutch job typically involves.
ACT lists the NX9-XTG6 for the 1995-1998 Nissan 200SX SE-R 2.0L SR20DE, the 1991-1994 Sentra SE-R 2.0L SR20DE, the 1998-2001 Sentra SE 2.0L SR20DE, the 1991-1993 NX 2000 coupe, the 1991-1996 and 1999-2002 Infiniti G20 2.0L SR20DE, and the 2000-2006 Sentra 1.8L QG18DE five-speed. Our listing names the 1996 200SX, and the kit applies only to the SE-R version; the base and SE 200SX with the 1.6L engine are not on ACT's list. The rear-wheel-drive SR20DET found in the 240SX swap world and Silvia uses a different kit. Match your engine code and send us your year and VIN if you have any doubt. More options are on our rebuild kits page.

No. ACT lists only the 1995-1998 200SX SE-R with the 2.0L SR20DE. The base and SE models use the 1.6L engine and a different clutch.
Yes. ACT lists the 1991-1994 Sentra SE-R and the 1991-1993 NX 2000 coupe with the SR20DE.
No. The rear-wheel-drive SR20DET uses a different flywheel and transmission and needs a different ACT kit.
It can be driven on the street, but ACT describes moderate to heavy pedal effort and aggressive engagement. It is meant for high-horsepower street or race use. A near-stock car will be happier with a street disc.
