Product Details

The rigid, 8-puck disc in this Clutch Masters FX500 clutch kit is a key design choice for the 2001-2005 BMW M3. This setup offers a more direct and immediate engagement compared to a stock clutch, which can be beneficial for drivers who push their M3 hard. It's built to handle the power and torque of the E46 M3's 3.2L engine, especially if you've made modifications that increase output.

Clutch Masters is known for making well-built clutch components, and this FX500 kit is no exception. The rigid disc design, combined with the FX500 pressure plate, aims for a solid connection between the engine and the transmission. This type of clutch is often chosen by owners who want a more connected feel and are comfortable with a firmer pedal. It's designed as a complete kit, meaning it includes the necessary components to replace your old clutch system. This makes the installation process more straightforward, as you won't have to source individual parts separately.

When installing a performance clutch like this, it's a good time to inspect your flywheel for wear or damage. If your flywheel is worn, it's recommended to have it resurfaced or replaced to ensure proper clutch operation and longevity. This kit is a solid option for M3 owners looking for an improved clutch system that can handle spirited driving and potentially higher horsepower applications.
