Installing a new clutch, what else while I'm DOWN THERE?

Hello all,

My MC has a few power mods (evolve intake/tune , euro headers and SS race cans).

The clutch has started to slip at 110k km. I know it's early for it to go but it is what it is.

I'm installing a Spec stage 2+ clutch.

I've done a clutch on an E92 335 x drive once before.

Does anyone have any advice to share on the DIY or what else I should do while she's opened up?

Guibo, RMS, SHIFT linkage?

Tks

Guibo, Center support bearing and RMS are a must imo.. Other than that I would just take a good look at other components and replace if necessary.

If you're feeling ballsy maybe a new flywheel? You're already there lol. UUC makes a good combo and and chatter can be reduced by increasing the idle around 50-100 rpm. Obviously this isn't really a wear and tear part, but you know figured it was worth mentioning to matchup an aftermarket clutch with an aftermarket flywheel.

I'm installing a Spec stage 2+ clutch and Spec billet steel single mass flywheel.
idle Rpm is already at 1000 due to Evolve tune and carbon fiber box.

I previously did a Spec stage 3+ on a JB3 modified e92.

It worked great.

Looking forward to this upgrade. The stock clutch pack was starting to slip at 110k km possibly due to upgrades/wear

I'll post up once it's done.
