BMW Drivetrain Parts for BMW Z3 (1996-2002)

Clear BMW chassis

Please ensure your correct model is selected

Building your perfect BMW is more than just adding horsepower and stiff suspension. Your drivetrain needs attention in order to deliver power effectively. Most BMWs feature comfortable clutch discs, heavy flywheels, long shifter throws, and open differentials. The drivetrain transmits power to the wheels, but can also be a source of power loss when it is designed for comfort rather than performance. Everything on this page will help you improve your power delivery and driving experience by providing custom Limited Slip Differentials, Short Shift Conversions, Performance Clutch Discs, Lightweight Flywheels, and anything else your BMW needs to be the perfect driving experience.

BM13-HDR6 kit features ACT's most popular Heavy Duty pressure plate. ACT Heavy Duty pressure plates use an exclusive diaphragm design to increase clamp load, reduce deflection and maximize clutch life. All diaphragms endure a four-stage, heat-treating process for unparalleled performance. ACT pressure plates have precision cover stampings to provide rigidity and consistency. ACT's 6-pad spring-centered race disc features a spring-center to properly damp torsional vibrations for quieter operation and resist failure even under harsh conditions. ACT spring retainers utilize wraparound spring windows and thicker retainer stampings to provide spring support, reduce stress concentrations, and increase strength and reliability. With the 6-pad spring-centered race disc, engagement is harsher, but shifting is faster. ACT's 6-pad spring-centered race disc is well-suited for smaller disc sizes in smaller engines.

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 a Heavy Duty pressure plate, a Performance Street sprung clutch disc, and an XACT Streetlite Flywheel.

The heavy duty pressure plate included offers a 20-50% clamp load increase, stock-moderate  pedal feel, and heat treated diaphragms for increased strength and performance.

Next in this kit is the R6 racing clutch disc. This disc is an unsprung, rigid disc with 6 pads that is best suited for drag and road racing and handles heat better thanks to its increased surface contact area versus the 4 pad version of this disc, the R4. The R6 pads are composed of ceramic friction materials and the disc has a chome-moly hub that is heat treated for additional strength under high load engagements. Over stock, this disc is much better for faster shifting and significantly higher torque loads. Unlike the stock disc, this racing disk has a slightly shortened life span due to its rigid design and pad composition. This in turn is offset thanks to its fast, aggressive engagement for track use.

The final main component is the XACT Streetlite Flywheel. This option is the most popular thanks to it versatility for street driving and drag/track style racing, its lighter weight for increased throttle response, and its single mass design.

Clutch Kit Specs:

  • Torque Rating: 505 ft/lbs
  • 83% torque capacity increase over stock!
  • Type of Disc: Racing
  • 10-count spline
  • Spline Size: 1-1/8" inch
  • Disc Weight: 2.4 lbs
  • Pressure Plate Weight: 11.2 lbs
  • Flywheel Weight: 15.9 lbs
  • 1 year Warranty from retail purchase date!

Fitment in following BMWs:
E36 BMW - Non-M submodels, ACT recommends upgrading to the E36 M3 Slave cylinder for best clutch operation.
E46 BMW - Non-M submodels, For vehicles with 5 speed transmissions only. Fits 325i/Ci models with a production date up to 03/2003.

Advanced Clutch Technology has specialized in performance clutches and flywheels for sport compacts, domestic cars, and diesel trucks since 1994. With a focus on ensuring that their parts are perfect for any need and accurately described, showing any and all possible specifications, ACT is one of the leading clutch engineers in the market today. Every design is thoroughly researched and tested prior to release to guarantee their products meet and exceed the customer's expectations. Careful attention is paid to factors such as engine torque, maximum RPM, drive type (FWD, RWD, AWD), and the type of driving being done, such as street, sport, track events, racing, etc. ACT's clutch kits are competitively priced, often with specifications greater than competitors' and at a higher quality. This clutch kit features a Heavy Duty pressure plate and an R4 racing clutch disc. Their Heavy Duty pressure plate offers a 20-50% clamp load increase, stock to moderate pedal feel, and can be used for either street or racing applications. All diaphragms went through a four-stage heating process for increased strength and unparalleled performance. The R4 clutch disc is an unsprung, rigid 4-pad racing disc that is recommended for drag and road racing. Its material composition is high quality, with ceramic friction materials and a chrome-moly hub that has been heat treated for high strength. It has an increased torque capacity and is better for faster shifting with its low weight and inertia. Being a racing disc, it has good durability, but a shortened spline life and a fast, aggressive engagement in comparison to standard street-use clutch discs.

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 a Heavy Duty pressure plate and a G4 racing clutch disc.

The heavy duty pressure plate included offers a 20-50% clamp load increase, stock-moderate  pedal feel, and heat treated diaphragms for increased strength and performance.

Next in this kit is the G4 racing clutch disc. This disc is a sprung, 4-pad disc that is suited for high horsepower road and track style racing. The G4 pads are composed of ceramic friction materials and the disc has a chome-moly hub that is heat treated for additional strength under high load engagements. Also featured are heavy duty torsional springs that are rated for the clutch kit's expected uses. Over stock, this clutch kit has a much higher torque capacity and is better for quick shifting thanks to lower weight and inertia. Despite its ceramic racing style pads, this disc has great durability. In turn, these pads provide higher heat tolerances and faster, more aggressive clutch engagements.
