Default ACT pressure plate with oem clutch disc?

So, i installed a a ACT pressure plate, six puck disc and light weight flywheel on my car about two years ago and I've decided to convert my car back to stock yea yea i know. Maybe use it as my DD for a while. I just dropped my trannie to put back in the oem disc and was considering leaving the ACT pressure plate on the car. Does anybody see any problem with this?? I want factory drivability and i figured the pressure plate would add a little grip. I definitely want to get rid of the clutch buzz. What do you think??

Years ago the ACT street disc was a OEM Honda disc. Hardtopguy used to sell OEM discs with ACT pressure plates as well.

As long as the 6 puck ACT pressure plate is the same, it should be fine.

An AP2 with OEM clutch and ACT PP is a pretty common setup from what I've seen here. Its what I plan to go to when my clutch goes out.

OEM disk should cure clutch buzz, and the ACT PP is 150-200% firmer than OEM I believe so you will get good take up. With OEM flywheel the car will be very easy to drive casually as well.

It's better, but the buzz is still there. The car is just too peaky to spring correctly.....or I'm just that good at breaking things.
