My experience is only on the R34 and R33. Evo’s might be a bit different, who knows.
ACT’s combination of the heavy duty pressure plate and their performance street disk are rated to 515ft. lbs. PM JVG, get a price. He should be able to help you out.
BTW: I have the above combination in the LGT, and it’s still simple and easy to drive. Smooth engagement, with only a slight increase in pedal effort.
