Flywheels for BMW 5 Series E34 (1987-1995)

Clear BMW chassis

Please ensure your correct model is selected

The factory BMW flywheel is a 2 piece design that mitigates vibration and creates a comfortable driving experience. A single piece aftermarket flywheel will allow the engine to rev quicker and gives shifting a much more direct and mechanical feel. This also makes clutch modulation on spirited takeoffs much easier and more predictable and is a must if you plan on tracking or competing in your BMW.

Lightweight flywheel for quicker, effortless revs that improve throttle response and free up lost horsepower. Tested and approved by our engineering team at Turner Motorsport. Tested in early, late, ETA and IS model E30s for confirmed fitment.

Introducing our Turner Flywheel: an ingenious blend of lightweight design, rich features, and remarkable strength! Crafted from 4140 HT Steel, this flywheel is precision-machined from a solid piece, ensuring unmatched durability. By strategically trimming excess weight from its original design, we've achieved a significant reduction in weight, giving new life to your M20 engine. With upgraded efficiency, your M20 can now swiftly spin to high RPMs, unleashing the full power and prowess of this formidable engine. Our flywheel features a ring gear profile compatible with all starters, alongside a reference tab tailored for early cars equipped with bellhousing-mounted sensor crank position detection.

Do you have an early model transmission with the crank sensors on the bellhousing? Maybe you have a late 325is with the crank sensor on the front of the engine, or maybe you have a 1988 super ETA. No matter which E30 model you have, our flywheel is the perfect choice for you.

During the engineering process we encountered the full spectrum of M20 and flywheel combinations. Early cars with bellhousing crank sensors, late cars with front mounting crank sensors and even a super ETA. On this adventure we found both early and late single mass flywheels and even the dual mass that we thought for sure was just a myth. At first we were hesitant that we could make one flywheel to fit them all but with the persistence of our engineering team(fleet of E30 enthusiasts) we can proudly say our M20 flywheel does in fact fit all engine and transmission applications you can think of.

Features and benefits:

Fits early and late models with M20
Fits shallow and deep bellhousing transmissions
Ring gear suited for both starters (P# 12411726504 + 12411361874)
Heavier than other lightweight flywheels, lighter than OEM, its like the Goldie Locks of flywheels - its just right
Reference pin for bellhousing crank sensor
Strong Single-Piece 4140 HT Steel construction
Designed to be used with factory and OE clutches

Aluminum flywheels are much lighter than the stock steel flywheel and that produces better throttle response and more available horsepower to the wheels for faster acceleration. The JB Racing aluminum flywheels are a direct replacement for the stock flywheel and work with stock clutch components for an easy upgrade with very little downside.

Modern flywheels are built with additional components and features that are designed to dampen and minimize vibrations from the engine and transmission. As a result they have become bloated in weight and that means more energy is used up just making the flywheel spin. The weight difference between an aluminum and steel flywheel is huge - sometimes more than 50% less. Without the additional mass, more energy can be diverted to where it counts most - moving the car. The flywheel and clutch is one of the first areas that engine builders address when making the rotating assembly lighter for race engines. The dampening effect is just not needed on cars that are focused on performance.

In addition to releasing more power to the wheels, the lighter flywheel allows the engine to spin more freely, which improves throttle response. Again, the difference is huge as you watch the revs build faster than before. With the engine spinning easier the power band comes up much sooner. The stock steel flywheel feels lazy in comparison. There is a driving adjustment required to get used to how much faster the engine revs but that's not really a downside.

The JB lightweight flywheel is designed to be used with a factory organic clutch - the same clutch kit that you would get from any BMW dealer. This makes replacement clutch components easy to source and inexpensive when compared to specialized racing clutches. By using the factory BMW clutch, JB has also made the whole assembly easy to live with when used on the street. The clutch behaves the same as it originally did - just with better throttle response and more power! The JB flywheel can also be rebuilt with a new clutch contact surface - you don't have to buy a new flywheel.

Aluminum flywheels are considered 'single-mass' flywheels because they do not have the same dampening designs as an original 'dual-mass' flywheel. With a single-mass design more noise and vibration may be noticeable.

Aluminum flywheels are considered 'single-mass' flywheels because they do not have the same dampening designs as an original 'dual-mass' flywheel. With a single-mass design more noise and vibration may be noticeable. There are steps you can take to minimize the noise - heavier weight transmission oil and clutch discs with anti-rattle springs (sprung-hub clutch).

This flywheel replaces the stock original single-mass flywheel and should only be used with the corresponding 'single-mass' clutch kit. According to BMW the single mass flywheel was installed in all 325i up to 12/86 production date but we have seen some later cars with a single-mass flywheel. The age of the car almost guarantees one or more clutch replacements and possibly a change to the original flywheel as well. You may not know which flywheel is currently installed until the flywheel cover or the transmission is removed.

Lightweight flywheels have proven themselves to be a worthwhile performance enhancement. But with the quicker throttle response and horsepower improvement comes one serious drawback: flywheel chatter. Without the dual-mass flywheel's rubber isolators, a lightweight aluminum flywheel has more rattle than stock. ECS has designed this flywheel using chrom-moly steel and it weighs almost ten pounds less than the stock DMF but not as extreme as full aluminum flywheels. The steel helps dampen vibration and noise so you get near-factory refinement and most of the benefits of a lightweight flywheel: quicker throttle response, better reliability, and more power to the wheels. Zero-balanced and SFI 1.1 certified (material and design has been independently burst tested to ensure quality and safety). This flywheel requires the E34 M5 sprung hub clutch kit. Choose below from the flywheel only or a complete kit.

Modern flywheels are built with additional components that are designed to dampen and minimize vibrations from the engine and transmission. Weight has increased and reliability has decreased. With additional weight more energy is required for it to move. A lightweight flywheel does away with the dual mass design and its additional mass so more energy can be diverted to where it counts most - moving the car. The flywheel and clutch is one of the first areas that engine builders address when making the rotating assembly lighter for race engines. The dampening effect is just not needed on cars that are focused on performance. And with a single-mass flywheel the unreliable DMF design is eliminated.
