BMW Performance Clutch Kits & Parts

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:

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.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

Simplifies bleeding the BMW clutch hydraulic system by reducing trapped air in the slave cylinder Eliminates excessive pedal pumping and inconsistent clutch feel Helps achieve firm, consistent clutch pedal engagement Crafted from high-quality aluminum for strength and longevity Durable black anodized finish resists wear and corrosion Designed for both DIY enthusiasts and professional technicians PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

Our Clutch Slave Cylinder Bleeder Tool was designed, engineered, tested, and quality inspected by our Research and Development team at Turner. Nothing but the highest level of precision and quality through leading-edge product development technology, including FARO laser scanning for reverse engineering and quality inspection, SolidWorks 3D CAD modeling, rapid prototyping utilizing our in-house 3D printer, and rigorous long-term product testing.

Engineered in-house, we designed this lightweight, single-mass flywheel to provide more than 10 pounds of weight savings over the factory flywheel. While some ultra-lightweight performance flywheels are manufactured from aluminum, our designers opted for a more driveable experience with steel. The mass provided by steel helps dampen vibrations and noise, delivering near-factory refinement with most of the benefits of a lightweight flywheel: quicker throttle response, improved durability (and longevity), and more effective transfer of power to the wheels.

Modern flywheels are built with additional components that are designed to dampen and minimize vibrations from the engine and transmission. Weight has increased and reliability has decreased. With additional weight more energy is required for it to move. A lightweight flywheel does away with the dual mass design and its additional mass so more energy can be diverted to where it counts most - moving the car. The flywheel and clutch is one of the first areas that engine builders address when making the rotating assembly lighter for race engines. The dampening effect is just not needed on cars that are focused on performance. And with a single-mass flywheel the unreliable DMF design is eliminated.

When it comes to selecting a clutch to pair with a lightweight flywheel, consider the driving you’ll be doing. As a single mass flywheel eliminates the dual-mass dampening of the factory flywheel, to retain the lowest noise, lowest harshness driving experience possible, select a clutch with a dampened disc such as the ACT Heavy Duty. For dedicated track cars, a solid clutch hub is appropriate.

Our recommendations:

Street: ACT Heavy Duty
Track: ACT Xtreme for high torque cars or OE 335is LuK (with 440lbs-ft or less)

Performance:

Turner Flywheel 18.6 lbs
10 lbs lighter than the factory BMW flywheel (Stock Flywheel 28.9 lbs)
Faster revs
Improved throttle response
Improved acceleration
Sportier driving experience
Stock flywheel weight - 28.9lbs
Turner single mass flywheel weight = 18.55lbs

Single Mass Flywheel Conversion:

Audible chatter from the transmission after installation is considered normal. As with most single mass flywheels, there is less dampening in the flywheel to reduce "gear noise." This chatter noise may be more present when the transmission fluid temperatures are hotter and may be intensified by other modifications. Most gearboxes will experience some chatter noise at hotter temperatures. Please be advised that this noise will disappear once the clutch pedal is depressed. This symptom may be lessened by adjusting transmission fluid weight, turning off electrical/driveline consumers (A/C, High Beams, ETC.), and by raising the RPM slightly.

Installation:

Flywheel Hardware: For added peace of mind, apply Blue or Orange Loctite when installing factory flywheel bolts that do not come with pre-applied threadlocker.

Crafted from 4140 HT Steel, this flywheel is precision-machined from a solid piece, ensuring unmatched durability. By strategically trimming excess weight from its original design, we've achieved a significant reduction in weight, giving new life to your M20 engine. With upgraded efficiency, your M20 can now swiftly spin to high RPMs, unleashing the full power and prowess of this formidable engine. Our flywheel features a ring gear profile compatible with all starters, alongside a reference tab tailored for early cars equipped with bellhousing-mounted sensor crank position detection.

Do you have an early model transmission with the crank sensors on the bellhousing? Maybe you have a late 325is with the crank sensor on the front of the engine, or maybe you have a 1988 super ETA. No matter which E30 model you have, our flywheel is the perfect choice for you.

During the engineering process we encountered the full spectrum of M20 and flywheel combinations. Early cars with bellhousing crank sensors, late cars with front mounting crank sensors and even a super ETA. On this adventure we found both early and late single mass flywheels and even the dual mass that we thought for sure was just a myth. At first we were hesitant that we could make one flywheel to fit them all but with the persistence of our engineering team(fleet of E30 enthusiasts) we can proudly say our M20 flywheel does in fact fit all engine and transmission applications you can think of.

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
