BMW Performance Clutch Kits & Parts

Experience a significant reduction in clutch chatter with the new Dual Mass Flywheel. This system eases the effort required during gear changes, providing a smoother shifting experience. Should any wear be detected during a clutch replacement, these systems, typically unresurfaced, are recommended for replacement. Featuring a 228mm diameter, this flywheel introduces a whole new shifting dimension to your car.

Benefits:

• Minimizes excessive clutch chatter
• Eases gear shifting effort
• Recommended replacement during clutch change if wear is identified
• Enhances shifting experience with a 228mm diameter

Advanced Clutch Technology (ACT) designs, engineers and develops products by leveraging decades of track and performance street experience. Advanced CAD, FEA simulation, and CAM tools help ensure highly optimized performance, reliability, and repeatability. These key advantages are produced by combining the best engineering and design methodologies with the latest in materials and manufacturing techniques.

ACT clutch kits stand unequaled in terms of consistent pedal feel, high torque capacity, long wear life and durability. In-house manufacturing is critical in tuning components specifically to each individual application while maintaining the predictable ACT pedal feel across the entire catalog.

This clutch kit features an Xtreme pressure plate, a Performance Street sprung clutch disc, and an XACT Streetlite Flywheel.

Their Xtreme pressure plate offers a 50-120% clamp load increase, moderate to heavy pedal feel, and is recommended for high performance street and racing applications. All diaphragms went through a four stage heating process for increased strength and unparalleled performance.

Next in this kit is the Performance Street clutch disc. This is the most popular sprung clutch disc and features high quality organic friction material with a high copper content for improved heat transfer and a steel backed lining for increased strength in burst load circumstances. This organic clutch disc has a significantly higher torque capacity than a stock disc but still retains a long life span and operates quietly and reliably.

Clutch Kit Specs:

• Torque Rating: 520 ft/lbs
• 68% torque capacity increase over stock!
• Type of Disc: Street
• 26-count spline
• Spline Size: 1-3/8" inch
• Disc Weight: 3.5 lbs
• Pressure Plate Weight: 10.7 lbs
• 1 year Warranty from retail purchase date!

Rev up your vehicle's performance with this comprehensive clutch installation kit designed for a stage one clutch upgrade. The kit includes an aluminum flywheel, making it a complete package for enhancing your car's performance.

The FX200 (Stage 2) clutch system boasts high-performance capabilities for street driving. It offers a holding capacity that's 70% greater than stock clutches, thanks to the heavy-duty reinforced pressure plate. With Clutch Masters' unique Hi-Leverage™ pressure ring design, this system ensures top-tier performance.

The sprung hub/cushioned disc and steel-backed Organic/Fiber Tough disc further contribute to its durability and performance.

All Clutch Masters clutch kits come with the essential components, including the pressure plate, clutch disc, throw-out bearing (when applicable), pilot bearing or bushing (when applicable), and an alignment tool.

Working in collaboration with Competition Clutch, the up and coming German automotive performance company DKM has released a new line of high quality clutches made to satisfy your stock and modified performance needs! If you're having problems keeping power to the wheels, DKM has the solution. Their design, using high-grade materials, gives you increased strength and heat tolerance preventing wear and fade, ensuring increased torque capacity, quicker shifts, and a longer clutch life.

Tracking your vehicle is all fun and games until your start burning through clutches as fast as you can afford to replace them. To end this cycle, the MS Twin Disc Clutch Kit is designed to hold up to 100 to 200% more torque capacity and provide you with a much improved clutch life span. The two organic disc setup provides additional contact surface areas to more evenly distribute pressure and heat for both a boost in performance and wear prevention.

This clutch kit does not include a flywheel. 

This is the stock twin mass flywheel for early N54 engines in the E82 135i, E9X 335i/xi, and E60 535i/xi (flywheel uses 8 mounting bolts). It's manufactured by OEM Shaeffler (LuK). Sachs recommends a new dual mass flywheel (DMF) on every other clutch replacement. There are several indicators for replacing the flywheel: damage to the clutch contact plate (from a severely worn clutch disc), grease leaking from inside (overheating), build-up of clutch material on the contact plate (excessive slipping and overheating), and failure of the internal damping system.

The dampening system uses rubber or coil springs to absorb driveline vibrations. Through age, excessive heat, and aggressive use the rubber loses its resilience and the metal springs lose their strength and become brittle. If the clutch and flywheel have become overheated the internal grease may break down as well. A DMF failure can be massive and catastrophic, not to mention dangerous as bits of metal and rubber fling themselves through the transmission bellhousing. Heat and aggressive driving will accelerate the wear so race and track cars should have their stock flywheels replaced at regular intervals or with any new clutch. Even normal street cars should plan for a new flywheel if it has high mileage.

DMF wear can only be checked with the transmission and clutch removed. If you can rotate the outer flywheel more than 20mm in either direction then it should be replaced.

A new pilot bearing (roller bearing) is included, pre-installed in the flywheel hub.
