Title: Valeo clutch kit
Post by: romkasponka on July 04, 2011, 03:47:07 PM

Just spotted BMW E36 318is M44 clutch kit with single mass flywheel, so I think it will fit E30 318is.

but my newly installed used m20 starter sounds cooler than my old m42 starter!
another bonus to consider when doing m20 flywheel conversion  :)

I'm temped by both solutions...but the Valeo is much more expensive here (~$800 USD).  It'll be tough to decide once the clutch goes...

I hear they don't last long. I installed one on a e46 323i I had a long time ago (even though it's not listed as compatible, it worked perfectly). I didn't have the car long enough to know if the durability issue is true.
