BMW E36 328i, Z3 2.8 JB Racing Lightweight Aluminum Flywheel offers a significant performance upgrade by replacing the heavy stock steel flywheel with a much lighter aluminum version. This JB Racing flywheel is designed to deliver faster acceleration, improved throttle response, and enhanced overall performance for your BMW.

The modern stock flywheels are burdened with additional components meant to dampen vibrations, which unfortunately adds unnecessary weight. The JB Racing aluminum flywheel, weighing just 10.0 lbs compared to the stock 25.0 lbs, eliminates this excess mass, allowing more power to reach the wheels and reducing the energy wasted on spinning the flywheel. Engine builders prioritize lightweight flywheels when optimizing race engines for maximum efficiency, and the difference is especially noticeable in how quickly the engine revs and reaches its power band.

This JB Racing lightweight flywheel is a direct replacement for the stock flywheel and is compatible with the factory BMW organic clutch. This compatibility ensures that you can use standard replacement clutches, making maintenance simple and cost-effective. The flywheel can also be resurfaced for a fresh contact surface, so there’s no need to buy a new one when it’s time to replace the clutch.

While single-mass aluminum flywheels like this one may result in slightly more noise and vibration compared to dual-mass designs, this can be managed with heavier transmission oil and sprung hub clutches, such as the Sachs Performance clutch available through Turner Motorsport.

• Faster acceleration: Reduces the rotational mass for quicker engine response.
• Improved throttle response: Engine revs more freely and builds RPM faster.
• Enhanced performance: More power delivered to the wheels for better driving dynamics.
• Cost-effective maintenance: Compatible with factory BMW organic clutches and can be resurfaced.
• Direct replacement: Easy upgrade with no modifications required.

Vehicle Compatibility:

• 1996-1999 E36 BMW 328i, 328is, 328ic
• 1997-1998 Z3 BMW Z3 2.8

Advanced Clutch Technology (ACT) designs, engineers and develops products by leveraging decades of track and performance street experience. Advanced CAD, FEA simulation, and CAM tools help ensure highly optimized performance, reliability, and repeatability. These key advantages are produced by combining the best engineering and design methodologies with the latest in materials and manufacturing techniques.

ACT clutch kits stand unequaled in terms of consistent pedal feel, high torque capacity, long wear life and durability. In-house manufacturing is critical in tuning components specifically to each individual application while maintaining the predictable ACT pedal feel across the entire catalog.

This clutch kit features a Heavy Duty pressure plate, a Performance Street sprung clutch disc, and an XACT Streetlite Flywheel.

The heavy duty pressure plate included offers a 20-50% clamp load increase, stock-moderate  pedal feel, and heat treated diaphragms for increased strength and performance.

Next in this kit is the R6 racing clutch disc. This disc is an unsprung, rigid disc with 6 pads that is best suited for drag and road racing and handles heat better thanks to its increased surface contact area versus the 4 pad version of this disc, the R4. The R6 pads are composed of ceramic friction materials and the disc has a chome-moly hub that is heat treated for additional strength under high load engagements. Over stock, this disc is much better for faster shifting and significantly higher torque loads. Unlike the stock disc, this racing disk has a slightly shortened life span due to its rigid design and pad composition. This in turn is offset thanks to its fast, aggressive engagement for track use.

The final main component is the XACT Streetlite Flywheel. This option is the most popular thanks to it versatility for street driving and drag/track style racing, its lighter weight for increased throttle response, and its single mass design.

• Torque Rating: 505 ft/lbs
• 83% torque capacity increase over stock!
• Type of Disc: Racing
• 10-count spline
• Spline Size: 1-1/8" inch
