New clutch

[Kream]

I'm getting the throw out bearing replaced (48k miles). Might as well do the clutch. Anyone have a list of after market clutch?

It's a big mystery right now actually. No one who lists a clutch for the car knows their butt from their face and could be very wrong.

We share the same flywheel and pressure plate bolt pattern as the e46 m3, the clutch is obviously also the same diameter.

What's possible though is that the splines on the clutch disk (and tranny input shaft) are a different count and diameter then the e46 m3, in which case the clutch couldn't be used. The other is the possibility of the pressure plate release travel being different, but this is unlikely.


I've been talking to diokaef about this and he might know the answer soon.



If you take your tranny out before then PLEASE take pictures of the clutch disk/tranny input shaft, and measure the diameter of the input shaft/inner diameter of the clutch disk splines.

Sombody on here or bimmerfest has an aftermarket clutch installed on their Z4M but I can't remember who. I saw it listed in their sig.... I wanna say it was victory designs clutch or something but I can't remember exactly.
