Clutch Masters 14-18 BMW M3 3.0L F80 6-Speed FX400 8-Puck SS Series Twin Disc Clutch w/Alum Flywheel

If you're pushing your 2015 BMW M3 hard, especially on the track or in spirited driving situations, you might be looking for a clutch that can handle more abuse than the stock unit. This Clutch Masters FX400 twin-disc clutch kit is built for those demanding scenarios. It's designed to handle significantly more torque and heat than a factory clutch, making it a solid choice for drivers who frequently push their M3 to its limits.

The FX400 series features an 8-puck sprung disc design, which offers a good balance between aggressive engagement and street drivability. The sprung hub helps absorb some of the shock, making it less jarring than a solid hub setup. This kit includes a lightweight aluminum flywheel, which reduces rotational mass. This means the engine can rev up and down more quickly, leading to improved throttle response and a more lively feel during acceleration and deceleration. The twin-disc setup itself is key to handling higher power levels and sustained heat, as it distributes the load across two friction surfaces, reducing wear and slippage under heavy use.

This Clutch Masters kit is a comprehensive package designed for a direct fit in your F80 M3 or F82 M4 with the S55 engine and 6-speed manual transmission. It comes with everything you need to replace your clutch assembly, including the twin discs, pressure plates, and the aluminum flywheel. While this is a significant upgrade, it's important to note that twin-disc clutches can sometimes have a firmer pedal feel and a more abrupt engagement compared to a stock single-disc setup. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for proper procedure and any specific break-in requirements.
