BMW Drivetrain Parts for BMW 3 Series E36 (1992-1998)

If you've ever bled the clutch hydraulic system on your BMW, you know how frustrating it can be. Designed with both DIY enthusiasts and professional technicians in mind, our clever tool simplifies one of the most notoriously annoying steps in clutch service.

Crafted from high-quality aluminum and finished in a durable black anodized coating, our clutch slave cylinder bleeder tool is built to last. Its function is simple: the adjustable piston rod applies controlled pressure directly to the clutch slave cylinder’s piston, compressing it and reducing its internal volume. By minimizing the amount of air trapped inside the cylinder, bleeding becomes faster, cleaner, and far more effective—no more endless pedal pumping or inconsistent clutch feel. The result is firm, consistent clutch pedal engagement and a smoother overall driving experience, all achieved with less time and effort underneath the car.

Give your factory clutch a heavier motorsport feel or make your extremely tough clutch more drivable! If you have an E36 there is absolutely no reason you don't have this clutch pedal! Your factory E36 clutch pedal is made of flimsy plastic with no adjustment at all, leaving you to the mercy of the clutch you have.

Our Turner Performance Adjustable Clutch Pedal is a rigid design that gives you the ability to fully adjust your clutch feel and performance. With both upper and lower adjustments this is the best pedal on the market to fine tune your clutch pedal just the way you like it. The upper eccentric provides an adjustable pedal ratio to fine tune clutch pedal effort(how heavy the pedal feels). The lower adjustment is to change the position of the clutch assist spring, this allows you to choose where the clutch assisting spring engages. Changing where the spring engages will move the area of tension on your clutch from lower, middle to higher for maximum adjustment.

Your race car no longer needs to have a clutch that makes the car undriveable on the street. Your track car can now be your daily driver or weekend cruiser.

Features:

Adjustable throw
Capable of quicker shifts
Three lower mounting points for the spring to adjust where the assistance engages
Eccentric mount for master cylinder to adjust leverage ratio and pedal feel(weight/force needed to engage the clutch)
Self lubricating bronze bushings
All necessary hardware required for installation
Pedal body and pedal are constructed from 6061-T6 aluminum and type II black anodized for a great finish
NOTE: This Clutch Pedal does not include the Compression spring and the original spring must be reused. If you'd like to purchase a new spring, please see:

The 6-speed Getrag 420G transmission, found in the European E36 M3 Evolution and E46 M3, has become an increasingly popular swap amongst E36 owners. Its increased strength, longevity, and overdrive sixth gear make it a great choice for both track cars and daily drivers. Unfortunately, many of the components needed to complete this transplant have become hard to source. Despite increased demand from enthusiasts, BMW has blocked the sale of European E36 M3 parts into North America.

Recognizing this issue, we set out to develop a replacement for the unavailable, 420G-specific selector rod. Like all OEM selector rods, the factory part uses single-shear attachment, allowing for deflection within the shifter linkage. The result? Vague, imprecise gear selections that detract from your overall driving experience. The dual-shear selector rod (DSSR) design spreads the torsional force of gear selections across the selector rod joint, reducing deflection for increased precision. Our dual-shear selector rod is precision-machined from durable 304 stainless steel to further reduce deflection and resist corrosion.

Features & Benefits:

Provides a more positive feel in the shifter by reducing play in the linkage due to minimized deflection Manufactured from 304 stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance and durability Replacement for 25112228055 (European E36 M3 Evolution) Works with the OEM shift lever and OE-style short-throw shifter kits Kit Includes:

Single piece 6061 construction, optimized cooling, provisions for temp sensor, and external cooler with removable air duct.

Built to last, made from a single piece of 6061 billet aluminum with a rugged and good-looking hard-coat anodizing our diff cover can handle anything you throw at it. Not only is it an absolute masterpiece to look at but the billet diff cover checks all the boxes for features needed. Reinforced mounting ears for strength and stability, never again will you break an ear off your diff cover like the factory units are known to do. Each ear is not only unified with the one-piece billet cover but also feature added material for the highest durability possible. This diff cover is cool, literally, the entire construction was designed with optimized cooling in mind. External fins are strategically placed on the rear face, bottom, and between the mounting ears of the cover, serving as effective heat sinks for optimal heat dissipation. This ensures stable temperatures, promoting longevity for both the fluid and your differential. Additionally, the internal design ensures continuous oiling and lubrication to the ring gear, maintaining its stability and preventing fatigue by controlling heat more effectively. An internal baffle at the cover's corner helps maintain proper pressure and prevents cavitation.

All of the OEM features were retained along with the upgrades. The mounting surface was designed to be compatible with both the OEM gasket or RTV of your choosing, some people don't trust the gaskets and we get it. You can transfer your speed sensor directly to your upgraded billet cover and it even features a provision for the sensor wire mounting. Factory bushing geometry allows you to use any E36 diff busing including rubber, poly, and even solid mounts. The drain and fill plugs on the diff cover are upgraded to -6AN using the provided high-pressure fittings with replaceable o-rings. The drain and fill plugs can now also be used for expanding to an external oil cooler allowing you to further expand the fluid capacity for optimized cooling and service intervals. To keep an eye on things from the driver seat is 1/8 NPT provision for temp sensors, this product from Turner has you covered at every turn.

Why the upgrade?

If you're new to differential covers used in earlier generations like the E30, you'll find significant improvements in the OEM E36 cover. Unlike the E30's single mount design, the E36 features a dual mount design, which was introduced to address common issues such as broken mounts due to worn-out bushings and aggressive driving. This upgrade significantly enhanced durability and reliability.

While the factory E36 differential cover was a significant improvement with its dual mounts compared to the previous generation, there are still some shortcomings that the original cover doesn't address. Most factory differential covers, including those on the E36, are cast from aluminum. However, due to the porous nature of cast aluminum, the mounting ears on these covers cannot withstand the intense shocks typical in motorsport or in vehicles with significantly increased power.

Upgrading to our Reinforced Billet Differential cover gives you the strength you need to push your car to its limits without worrying about snapping a diff mount from clutch kicking or other shocks to the drivetrain. In addition to its enhanced strength, this differential cover includes numerous other upgrades and conveniences. These include improved cooling and lubrication for the ring gear, upgraded fill and drain plugs, and the option to expand an external oil cooler for extreme motorsport usage. Designed to complement both upgraded daily drivers and extensively modified track cars, it also boasts a visually appealing design.

Key Benefits:

Reinforced mounting ears for strength and stability - never again will you break an ear off during an aggressive drive or track event
External fins on the back side, bottom, and mounting ears on the casing for maximum cooling and consistent fluid temps
Removeable air duct to direct air across the cooling fins for even more temperature control
Optimized internal design to keep fluid consistently on the ring gear
Integrated breather to prevent cavitation by venting the appropriate amount of pressure being built up in the diff housing
