What is the benefit of a sprung hub clutch disc?

A sprung hub clutch disc uses springs to help absorb torsional vibrations and shock from the engine and drivetrain. This can lead to a smoother engagement and reduced noise and vibration transmitted to the cabin, especially with a higher-performance clutch.

Why does the kit include an aluminum flywheel?

The aluminum flywheel is significantly lighter than a stock steel flywheel. This reduction in rotational mass allows the engine to rev up and down more quickly, improving throttle response and making the vehicle feel more agile.

Does this clutch kit come with all necessary hardware for installation?

This kit includes the clutch disc, pressure plate, and aluminum flywheel. It is recommended to consult the manufacturer's installation guide to confirm if any additional hardware, such as pilot bearings or alignment tools, are needed for your specific vehicle.

About this part

Product Details

The Clutch Masters FX350 clutch kit uses a unique sprung hub design for the clutch disc, which helps absorb some of the drivetrain shock and vibration that can be transmitted to the cabin. This is particularly important for a high-performance clutch like the FX350, designed to handle more power and torque than the stock setup in your 2001-2005 BMW M3. The kit includes a lightweight aluminum flywheel, which significantly reduces rotational mass. This means the engine can rev up and down more quickly, leading to a more responsive feel during acceleration and deceleration.

Clutch Masters has engineered this FX350 kit to be a robust upgrade for M3 owners looking for increased holding capacity. The sprung clutch disc is a key feature that helps maintain a more comfortable driving experience compared to a solid hub disc, especially in daily driving situations. The aluminum flywheel not only aids in quicker revving but also helps dissipate heat more effectively than a heavier steel flywheel, which can be beneficial under demanding use. This kit is a comprehensive solution for those seeking to upgrade their M3's clutch system to handle more power or simply to replace a worn-out original unit with a more capable component.

When installing this kit, remember that it includes a new aluminum flywheel, which requires specific break-in procedures to ensure proper mating with the clutch disc. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for the correct break-in period and any specific torque specifications. This kit is designed as a direct replacement for your stock clutch assembly, simplifying the installation process for a qualified mechanic.
