The ACT Streetlite flywheel offers the following benefits:

Noticeably improved engine response and acceleration: Experience a significant boost in engine performance and acceleration with this component. OE to mild gear rattle: Expect only minimal gear rattle, from Original Equipment (OE) standards to a mild level, ensuring a smoother drive. Heat-treated forging for strength and toughness: Crafted using heat-treated forging, this part guarantees enhanced strength and durability. Induction-hardened ring gears for maximum life: The ring gears undergo induction hardening, providing maximum lifespan and reliability. One-piece construction allows less opportunity for failure and provides uniform efficient heat transfer from the clutch disc: The one-piece design reduces potential failure points and ensures uniform and efficient heat transfer from the clutch disc, preventing issues like warped inserts or loose ring gears. Recommended for street and race use: This component is ideal for both everyday street driving and competitive racing environments.

Forged, CNC machined, and dynamically computer balanced for smooth high RPM reliability: Expertly forged, CNC machined, and dynamically balanced via computer to ensure smooth and reliable performance at high RPMs.

Hands down - one of the best performance upgrades you can make to an E46 M3, E60 M5 or E63/E64 M6! With almost no downside you can make your BMW much quicker by swapping in a new ring & pinion gear set. The gearing used to be overlooked when planning modifications but the 3.85, 3.91, and 4.10 gears are now one of our biggest selling upgrades for the E46 M3! With a rear end gear upgrade you get the effects of adding horsepower but without adding any more stress to the engine or drivetrain. It's one of the best areas to get return from your modification spending. Using a shorter (numerically higher) gear ratio will give you better acceleration. The R&P acts as a torque multiplier, putting the engine into the power band sooner for each gear. There is an 6% increase in torque at the wheels with the shorter R&P. Want to make your car faster off the line or out of corners? Or avoid a downshift to pass on the highway? This is what you need.

The R&P can be installed on its own but for cars that have more than 60,000 miles it would be a better idea to rebuild the whole diff. The factory viscous limited slip units have a typical lifespan of 50-70,000 miles. We offer diff rebuilding with 3.85 or other gear options and you get a fully-rebuilt and serviced limited slip unit at the same time. Click here for our diff rebuild options.

3.85 Gearing Example: 2004 M3, 6-speed manual, 275/35-19" rear tires

Gear RatioGearSpeedRPM

40 MPH in 4th
3.62 4th 40mph 2,250rpm
3.85 4th 40mph 2,350rpm

70 MPH Cruise
3.62 6th 70mph 2,650rpm
3.85 6th 70mph 2,800rpm

5th Gear Speed at Redline
3.62 5th 175mph 8,000rpm
3.85 5th 165mph 8,000rpm

Why 5th? Because 6th does not have the mechanical advantage to get past wind resistance at these speeds - it is more of a cruise/overdrive gear. Using 5th for comparison purposes is much more relevant than having to take into account wind direction, resistance, grade, elevation, tire sizing, etc. These numbers are for comparisons among gear ratios only, not to determine what your M3 will top out at.

This item is the genuine BMW part and the ring & pinion set only. You will need to have this professionally installed into your existing differential. BMW does not supply differential rebuild parts (bearings, shims, plates, etc.) so only a qualified shop that is experienced in BMW diff rebuilding should perform this installation. We also offer built differentials and exchanges, click here.

This item fits the following BMWs:
2001-2006 E46 BMW M3
2004-2010 E60 BMW M5
2004-2011 E63 BMW M6

When it comes to the torque found on axle nuts you're already looking at using a breaker bar or impact gun not to mention the corrosion collected over the years. The safest approach is using impact socket, since they are built with the strength needed to avoid breaking under pressure.

Features:

• Heavy duty ½ inch-drive sockets and drivers have extra thick alloy steel walls, and take a beating that would destroy normal sockets
•  Durable black oxide coating wipes clean easily and resists rust
• Contains three 12-point sockets for a sure grip on the most common sized axle nuts, plus three hex drives for removing common hex-head plugs and fasteners
• Conveniently packaged in a blow molded case, this set will please the most demanding professional technician or discriminating prosumer

Kit includes:

• 30mm, 32mm, and 36mm - 12-point axle nut sockets - ½" drive

• 14mm, 17mm, and 19mm hex head drive axle shoulder bolt sockets - ½" drive

See the included components under Kit Contents below.

Automatic transmissions are reliable, shift smoothly, and can last without issue so long as they are properly maintained. Over time, the transmission fluid becomes thick and the filter becomes contaminated with small metal particles. This can cause excess wear, high transmission operating temperatures, and eventual failure. To prevent this we recommend changing your filter, fluid, and seals to ensure your transmission continues to operate flawlessly. We recommend filter and fluid changes every 50,000 miles. 

Kit Includes:

• Automatic transmission oil pan with integrated filter 
• Oil pan gasket
• Drain plug with sealing washer
• Fill plug with sealing washer
• 7 quarts Redline D4 automatic transmission fluid
