The ECS Tuning Center Support Bearing Brace is engineered to improve drivetrain performance and longevity. The factory center support bearing features internal an internal rubber bushing to reduce NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness) transmission to the cabin. Unfortunately, this material choice falls short when it comes to performance applications. Under extreme load conditions, this bushing is prone to flexing, resulting in driveshaft misalignment. To address the shortcomings of the factory rubber center support carrier design, ECS engineers developed a set of precision-fit, split polyurethane bushings that secure tightly around the existing driveshaft bearing. Constructed from 30A durometer polyurethane, this material eliminates bushing deflection while maintaining minimal noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH). By eliminating deflection, this innovative solution not only improves durability but also ensures a significantly longer service life than the OEM center support bearing—making it an excellent upgrade for aging BMW chassis.
The polyurethane bushings are surrounded by a robust 6061-T6 billet aluminum bracket designed with strength and reliability in-mind. This bracket features a split design for hassle-free installation, eliminating the need to remove the driveshaft assembly entirely. To install the ECS Center Support Carrier, simply cut around your existing bearing, remove the factory brace, and clamp on your new bushings and bracket. This user-friendly approach saves time and simplifies maintenance or upgrades. Two stainless steel socket head screws are used to fasten the two-piece bracket, offering corrosion resistance and secure clamping under high torque and stress. This combination of materials and design ensures dependable performance and long-lasting durability, even in demanding applications.

Constant exposure to the heat generated during transmission operation can cause this small plastic transmission adapter to degrade and warp over time. This failure often results in fluid leaks, a common issue in vehicles equipped with the ZF 6HP19 transmission.
If you're dealing with a transmission fluid leak and struggling to identify the source, this adapter is likely the culprit.

Polyurethane Transmission Mount Set - Street Performance
Your transmission mounts are the backbone of your drivetrain. Stock rubber mounts often degrade quickly, leading to excess movement, mis-shifts, and, in some cases, even chassis damage. ECS Tuning’s Street Performance Polyurethane Transmission Mount Set offers an upgraded solution built for street and track performance alike.
Constructed from high-quality polyurethane and 304 stainless steel, these mounts are crafted to withstand the demands of high-torque and forced-induction setups, minimizing deflection and giving you more direct power delivery. With a 70A durometer rating, these mounts offer the best of both worlds—stiff enough to handle aggressive driving but still comfortable for daily commutes. For track-focused builds, we also offer a stiffer 80A version (sold separately).
Key Features:
Improved Stability: Reduced transmission movement for fewer mis-shifts and over-revs Polyurethane Construction: Stronger than rubber, with excellent oil and water resistance Engaging Driving Experience: A more connected feel without excessive vibration Dual Options: Choose Street (70A) or Race (80A) to match your driving style Durable Design: Mechanical interlock feature for high-stress applications Pair your new clutch and flywheel kit with these premium mounts for an unparalleled driving experience. Plus, our DIY guide makes installation easy—ECS Tuning has you covered from start to finish!
Upgrade the whole driving experience of your car with a single mass clutch and flywheel conversation paired with new upgraded engine and transmission mounts. These street durometer mounts are 70 and 75 durometer for an improved but not too harsh driving experience. This clutch and flywheel upgrade features a slightly heavier pedal feel with smooth engagement, paired with your upgraded drivetrain mounts you are sure to have confidence in how sturdy your car drives!
Our performance clutch and flywheel kit utilizes an upgraded ECS E34 M5 clutch kit with our in-house engineered flywheel to fit all M5x and S5x motors with a 5-speed transmission. By eliminating the dual-mass flywheel and replacing it with a single-mass we are able to eliminate the slack and extra weight of the flywheel for a quicker throttle response and acceleration. Our upgraded clutch kit utilizes all the best features of the original M5 clutch with an upgraded pressure plate and clutch disc, with the new clutch you have a better, more engaged clutch pedal feel, engagement, and longevity.
Whether you're replacing a worn-out clutch or upgrading for increased power handling, this E34 M5 clutch and flywheel kit offers a reliable solution for enhanced pedal feel, power capacity, and overall driving satisfaction.
Paired with a modified geometry flywheel, the E34 M5 style clutch is ideally suited for most E36, E46, and others using the same powertrain. It checks all the boxes for essential clutch replacement features. While some aftermarket options may address slipping issues and worn-out clutches, they often sacrifice pedal feel, providing little to no resistance. A soft clutch not only kills the driving experience of your BMW but also reduces confidence when pushing the car to its limits.
On the contrary, you might be in the market for an upgraded clutch to handle your modified engine/forced induction builds. You go from an OE or aftermarket clutch option that has a lackluster and soft pedal feel to the complete opposite side of the spectrum, a very stiff clutch that grabs like an on-and-off switch making the clutch a pain almost undrivable on the street resulting in your favorite car turning into your least favorite car to drive.
The E34 M5 clutch and flywheel kit balances performance with practicality, ensuring a satisfying driving experience whether you're maintaining your BMW or preparing it for increased power demands.
