ECS E34 M5 Performance Clutch Kit – E34/E39/E36/E46/Z3/Z4

Description

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.
