Clutch Masters 95-00 BMW M3 E36 FX850 Twin Disc Race Clutch Kit w/ Steel Flywheel

This Clutch Masters FX850 Twin Disc Race Clutch Kit is built for high-performance BMW applications, specifically designed for models like the E36 M3 from 1995-1999, but also fitting a range of other BMWs including the 325i, 530i, and Z3. If you're pushing your BMW hard, whether on the track or in spirited street driving, a robust clutch is essential for transferring power effectively and reliably. This kit is engineered to handle significantly more torque and heat than a stock clutch, making it a solid choice for builds aiming for increased horsepower or for replacing a worn-out original unit.

The FX850 features a twin-disc design, which means it uses two friction surfaces per disc. This setup increases the total surface area available for engagement, allowing the clutch to dissipate heat more effectively and handle higher torque loads without slipping. The kit includes a steel flywheel, which is a durable option that provides a solid mounting surface for the clutch discs and is well-suited for the demands of a performance clutch. Clutch Masters uses their proprietary sprung hub design for the discs, which helps to dampen drivetrain shock and vibration, offering a more comfortable engagement than many other twin-disc race clutches. This attention to detail in the disc design helps to reduce chatter and make the clutch feel more manageable in daily driving situations, despite its high-performance capabilities.

When installing a twin-disc clutch like this, it's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, as the setup and break-in procedure are critical for longevity and performance. This kit is designed as a direct replacement for the factory clutch assembly, simplifying the installation process. It's a well-built system intended for drivers who need a clutch that can keep up with their demanding driving style and modifications.
