About this part

Product Details

This Clutch Masters FX250 clutch kit is what you get when you're looking to replace the clutch on your 2001-2005 BMW M3 with the 3.2L E46 engine. Inside this box, you'll find the essential components to get your M3 back on the road with a more robust clutch system: a heavy-duty pressure plate, a performance clutch disc, and a new release bearing. This kit is designed to handle more power than the stock clutch, making it a solid choice if you've added modifications or simply want a clutch that feels more direct and holds up better under spirited driving.

The FX250 series clutch disc features a sprung hub design, which helps absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with a performance clutch, offering a smoother engagement than you might expect from a clutch rated for higher torque. The pressure plate is built to provide a firmer pedal feel and a more positive engagement, ensuring that power is transferred efficiently from the engine to the transmission. Clutch Masters is known for making well-built clutch components, and this kit is no exception, aiming to provide a reliable upgrade for your M3's drivetrain.

When installing this kit, it's always a good idea to inspect your flywheel for any signs of wear or damage, and resurfacing or replacing it is often recommended for optimal clutch performance and longevity. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's specific installation instructions, especially regarding any break-in period required for the new clutch disc to properly mate with the flywheel and pressure plate. This ensures you get the most out of your new clutch and it lasts for many miles to come.
