BMW Performance Clutch Kits & Parts for BMW 3 Series E46 (1999-2005)

Enhance Your BMW's Performance with a Heavy Duty Pressure Plate

Enhance your BMW's performance with a Heavy Duty Pressure Plate, designed for high-performance modifications. This pressure plate provides an increased clamp load without significantly raising pedal pressure. The Organic disc material boasts a high metal content, doubling the co-efficient of friction compared to stock linings and reinforcing rotational strength up to a 12,000 RPM burst point. Despite its robustness, this clutch system maintains a stock feel while ensuring durability and strength.

Stage 2 Daily Clutch Kits offer:

• Recommended for daily driving, street use, and moderate racing
• Conservatively rated to withstand 340lbs/ft of torque
• Equipped with a solid-hub center section for compatibility with OE dual-mass flywheel

Upgrade your BMW's performance with a Stage 2 Daily Clutch Kit, providing enhanced durability and performance while maintaining a familiar driving feel.

This clutch package is built to handle heavily modified cars and designed to function according to the specific needs of the 1/4 and 1/8 mile track. The pressure plate for this kit is SFI approved Race Cover engineered to disengage with less pedal travel shortening the shift time. Discs are a puck design, which reduces rotational mass and are assembled with all high carbon component pieces for maximum strength. The friction material used is Graphite impregnated Ceramic perfectly suited for drag racing because of its maximum friction co-efficient, rapid heat dissipation and abrupt engagement characteristics.

Stage 3 Drag/Drift Clutch Kits:

Recommended uses are drag, pulling, drifting

Conservatively rated to hold 600lbs/ft of torque

Featuring a solid-hub center section for use with an OE dual-mass flywheel

This clutch package is designed for high HP vehicles desiring a start performance similar to O.E. The pressure plate is Race Engineered (SS) and SFI approved with significant load increase over stage 1,2 pressure plates (+600-800 lbs.). Expect a pedal effort increase of 20%-25%. Discs are assembled with heat-treated wear resistant hubs; drive plates and springs for high load transfer and dependable operation. The sprung centers on the disc in conjunction with the marcel fin between the linings create a dual dampening effect that simulates O.E. start performance. A Performance Organic friction material with a high metal content increases torque and RPM capability and maintains low operating temperatures which reduces wear and glazing.

Stage 3 Daily Clutch Kits:

Recommended usages are daily, spirited street and occasional track

Conservatively rated to hold 400lbs/ft of torque

Featuring a sprung-hub center section for use with a single-mass flywheel

This system features a Heavy Duty Pressure Plate modified for a puck style disc with no cushion between the linings to keep the clutch pedal travel short and quick. The puck design disc reduces rotational mass and total drive surface area while increasing pounds per square inch on the surface of the friction material. This combination minimizes inertia, accelerating the transfer of torque from the engine to the wheels. The friction material used for this race application is Graphite Impregnated Ceramic. This compound exceeded all other friction materials when testing for durability, reduced chatter, heat transfer and torque capacity.

Stage 2 Drag/Drift Clutch Kits:

Recommended uses are drag racing, drifting and limited street

Conservatively rated to hold 370lbs/ft of torque.

Featuring a solid-hub center section for use with an OE dual-mass flywheel
