Clutch Masters 97-03 BMW 540i 4.4L E39 (267mm Upgrade) FX350 Clutch Kit w/ Aluminum Flywheel

Clutch Masters is well-known for making robust clutch components, and this FX350 clutch kit is a prime example of their work for your 1997-2003 BMW 540i with the 4.4L E39 engine. If you're looking to replace a worn-out clutch or want a stronger setup for your vehicle, this kit is designed to handle more power and provide a more direct feel than the stock clutch. It features a 267mm upgrade size, meaning it's larger than the original equipment, which helps dissipate heat better and handle increased torque. This is a significant upgrade for anyone who drives their 540i hard or plans on adding more performance modifications.

This kit includes their FX350 clutch disc, which is built for a balance of holding power and drivability. It uses a sprung hub design to help absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with a high-performance clutch, making it more comfortable for daily driving. The kit also comes with a lightweight aluminum flywheel. A lighter flywheel allows the engine to rev up and down more quickly, which can improve throttle response and make the car feel more agile, especially during spirited driving or track use. The aluminum construction also helps with heat management compared to a heavier steel flywheel.

When installing this clutch kit, you'll want to ensure you have all the necessary supporting components, as this is a complete replacement for your original clutch system. Given the price point and the performance level of this FX350 kit, it's a solid choice for owners who want a reliable and capable clutch upgrade for their BMW 540i. It's built to last and provide consistent performance, making it a worthwhile investment for your vehicle's drivetrain.
