This braided stainless steel line replaces the stock hydraulic hose connecting your clutch slave cylinder to the clutch master cylinder. There are several deficiences with rubber, especially as it ages - when new the rubber expands and swells under pressure and the pedal can feel spongy. As rubber ages and is exposed to extreme temperatures the rubber can harden and even shrink (common on brake hoses), which results in a stiff pedal. Rubber clutch lines do not stand up to the stresses of hard use. ECS Exact-Fit stainless reinforced clutch lines provide more confident and dependable shifting by maintaining consistent line pressure, long lasting corrosion resistance, and increased protection from failure. These lines are reinforced with braided stainless steel mesh, affording superior expansion resistance. This resistance to expansion creates a firmer pedal, and a more direct clutch pedal feel. The signature red polymer coating provides additional protection from the elements and abrasion.

This particular stainless steel clutch line fits the following BMWs:
1999-2005 E46 3 Series (all) including 323i, 323Ci, 325i, 325xi, 325Ci, 328i, 328Ci, 330i, 330xi, 330Ci
2001-2006 E46 M3 (manual transmission only, no SMG)
2004-2009 X3 SAV including X3 2.5, X3 3.0

Some modifications to your vehicle may not produce power to create gains in the overall performance of your driving. When you add a "Po' Boy" clutch stop to your BMW the performance gain is directly felt in the driving experience.

The ECS clutch stop allows the driver to fine tune the position of the clutch pedal to closely match the engagement point for precise, quicker shifting. The adjustment range found in this product can be set to the stock engagement point or can be adjusted to follow the wear of the clutch.  Meaning your new experience will never change all the way to the end of the clutch life and can be reset to enjoy the next clutch.

Note: This modification might require some slight modification to the clutch switch mounting bracket, which can be bent slightly by hand.

Eliminate the factory clutch delay valve and enjoy faster, more precise clutch engagement with the ECS Clutch Delay Valve (CDV) Removal Tool Kit. Designed for F and G-Chassis manual BMWs, this kit makes removing the hydraulic restrictor safe, simple, and reliable, no slave cylinder removal required.

Most modern BMWs come from the factory with a plastic slave cylinder featuring a CDV, intended to smooth engagement and reduce driveline shock for less experienced drivers. In practice, this restrictor can dull pedal feedback, slow shifts, and increase clutch wear. Removing it restores the sharp, direct clutch feel that BMW enthusiasts expect.

Key Benefits:

Faster, more predictable clutch engagement
Sharper pedal response and connected driving feel
No need to remove the slave cylinder
Tool Design:

Machined from durable 304 stainless steel
Includes precision removal and insertion tools
Knurled grip for easy handling
Built-in depth and angle control protects internal surfaces and ensures proper grommet alignment
Removal and Installation:

Disconnect the Clutch Line
Remove the clutch line from the slave cylinder to access the factory clutch delay valve.
Remove the Restrictor Plate
Thread the removal tool into the center of the small grommet. Once engaged, carefully pull the tool to remove the grommet and restrictor plate. The small rubber sealing O-ring will come out along with the plate.
Reinstall the O-Ring
Place the rubber O-ring onto the installation tool. Insert the tool into the slave cylinder to properly seat the O-ring in its original position.
Reconnect and Bleed the Clutch
Reattach the clutch line, add fluid, and bleed the system according to your manufacturer’s instructions.
Enjoy Enhanced Clutch Feel
With the delay valve removed, your clutch now engages faster and more predictably, giving your manual transmission the sharp, connected feel it was designed for.

Looking to eliminate your dual-mass flywheel? Overwhelmed with all the options, but hearing complaints about so many of them with rattling or chatter from them? Problem solved. Introducing the all-new Lightweight Performance Flywheel from ECS Tuning. Engineered in-house with the enthusiast daily driver in mind, this is the perfect option for those wanting a lightweight flywheel without the annoying chatter heard from so many other options on the market. Designed to accommodate all conditions: from Sunday drives through the country, to the abuse of the track. No matter your driving style or ability, this is the flywheel and clutch kit for you.

Key Features:

Eliminates factory dual-mass flywheel for:
Crisper shifts
Improved throttle response
Improved acceleration (We measured a .4s decrease in 0-60 times on an otherwise-stock E36 328i!)
Lower replacement cost
Hardened 4140 Chromoly Steel for excellent engagement feel and wear resistance; zinc plated for corrosion resistance
Designed for use with any E34 M5 pressure plate and clutch for OE-type clutch feel
Sprung-hub clutch disc to eliminate chatter at idle and reduce driveline shock loading
Weighs in at just 16.5lbs!
SFI tested and certified to ensure safe operation under all conditions
Includes ECS performance flywheel, clutch kit with throwout bearing, pilot bearing and all flywheel and pressure plate hardware
Why is SFI testing and certification important?

The SFI Foundation, Inc. (SFI) is a non-profit organization established to issue and administer standards for the quality assurance of specialty performance and racing equipment. SFI certification indicates a flywheel has been certified using industry-standard SFI Spec 1.1 standards by an independent testing body to ensure quality of both design and materials for flywheels utilized in competitive motorsports.

Having successfully passed SFI certification, this flywheel has an individual SFI serial number found in a laser etching, and on an affixed sticker. This certification means the ECS-engineered flywheel is safe and reliable during the rigors of competitive racing; it's also safe and reliable for years and years of street use.

Enhance Your Car's Performance with the Perfect Clutch-Flywheel Combination

When it's time to replace your car's clutch, you face a crucial decision: upgrade or stick with stock? In many cases, upgrading is the preferred choice, especially when you pair the right clutch with a single mass flywheel. The secret to achieving the perfect blend of performance and driving experience lies in selecting a sprung hub clutch. This option allows you to enjoy the advantages of a single mass flywheel while eliminating issues like noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH), ensuring an outstanding driving performance.

Pair with T#363031 or any flywheel designed to be used with the E34 M5 clutch.

Upgraded clutch kit to be used with E34 M5 architecture flywheels. Designed for factory and upgraded street car applications to handle up to 375 Ft/lbs at the crank.

Whether you're replacing a worn-out clutch or upgrading for increased power handling, this E34 M5 clutch 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 kit balances performance with practicality, ensuring a satisfying driving experience whether you're maintaining your BMW or preparing it for increased power demands.
