This braided stainless steel line replaces the stock hydraulic hose connecting your clutch slave cylinder to the clutch master cylinder. There are several deficiences with rubber, especially as it ages - when new the rubber expands and swells under pressure and the pedal can feel spongy. As rubber ages and is exposed to extreme temperatures the rubber can harden and even shrink (common on brake hoses), which results in a stiff pedal. Rubber clutch lines do not stand up to the stresses of hard use. ECS Exact-Fit stainless reinforced clutch lines provide more confident and dependable shifting by maintaining consistent line pressure, long lasting corrosion resistance, and increased protection from failure. These lines are reinforced with braided stainless steel mesh, affording superior expansion resistance. This resistance to expansion creates a firmer pedal, and a more direct clutch pedal feel. The signature red polymer coating provides additional protection from the elements and abrasion.
This particular stainless steel clutch line fits the following BMWs:
1984-1991 E30 BMW 318i 318is 318ic 325e 325es 325i 325ic 325is 325ix M3
1988 E28 BMW M5
1987-1989 E24 BMW M6
The ECS Billet Master Cylinder Fitting is the ultimate solution for a notorious failure point in BMW E30 clutch systems. This critical fitting, located at the end of the master cylinder reservoir hose, is responsible for delivering hydraulic fluid to the clutch master cylinder inlet. Unfortunately, the OEM plastic fitting is prone to degradation after prolonged exposure to brake fluid, often leading to total hydraulic pressure loss and brake fluid leaks inside your vehicle.
ECS has addressed this issue by engineering a robust and long-lasting alternative. Crafted from 6061 billet aluminum and finished with black hard-coat anodizing for superior corrosion resistance, this precision-machined fitting replaces the fragile plastic original, ensuring leak-free performance for the lifetime of your vehicle. Upgrade to our Billet Master Cylinder Fitting during your next clutch master cylinder service and enjoy peace of mind knowing your BMW is equipped with a durable, high-quality solution.
Features & Benefits:

Precision-machined barbs match OEM dimensions for a leak-free seal with Genuine and aftermarket master cylinders. Designed for a secure fit within the factory grommet location. Prevents brake fluid leaks and loss of clutch hydraulic pressure caused by plastic fitting failure. Upgrade your BMW and bulletproof your master cylinder with the ECS Billet Aluminum Master Cylinder Fitting. Ensure clutch hydraulic system reliability and enjoy peace of mind knowing your failure-prone plastic master cylinder fitting has been addressed.
Pair with T#363031 or any flywheel designed to be used with the E34 M5 clutch.
Upgraded clutch kit to be used with E34 M5 architecture flywheels. Designed for factory and upgraded street car applications to handle up to 375 Ft/lbs at the crank.
Whether you're replacing a worn-out clutch or upgrading for increased power handling, this E34 M5 clutch kit offers a reliable solution for enhanced pedal feel, power capacity, and overall driving satisfaction.
Paired with a modified geometry flywheel, the E34 M5 style clutch is ideally suited for most E36, E46, and others using the same powertrain. It checks all the boxes for essential clutch replacement features. While some aftermarket options may address slipping issues and worn-out clutches, they often sacrifice pedal feel, providing little to no resistance. A soft clutch not only kills the driving experience of your BMW but also reduces confidence when pushing the car to its limits.
On the contrary, you might be in the market for an upgraded clutch to handle your modified engine/forced induction builds. You go from an OE or aftermarket clutch option that has a lackluster and soft pedal feel to the complete opposite side of the spectrum, a very stiff clutch that grabs like an on-and-off switch making the clutch a pain almost undrivable on the street resulting in your favorite car turning into your least favorite car to drive.
The E34 M5 clutch kit balances performance with practicality, ensuring a satisfying driving experience whether you're maintaining your BMW or preparing it for increased power demands.

Shifter slop is a common complaint among all BMW models. Some of that play comes from the bushings where the shifter carrier mounts to the transmission. The original rubber carrier bushings don't last very long and when they get too soft the shifter flops around. These Teflon bushings are not as stiff as Delrin so they won't transmit as much vibration and buzz in the shifter. Yet Teflon will last much longer than the factory rubber, giving you precise shifting for many years.
Note: this is only one part of the shift linkage and there may be other components that need replacing to improve shifting feel.
We advise getting a replacement bushing carrier pin as well. If the original rubber bushings are worn the pin will have wear too and you will still have slop in the shifter, even with the new bushings.
These are the ROUND shifter carrier bushings (some BMW models have oval bushings).
