Clutch & Flywheel Upgrade
« on: June 24, 2010, 08:34:27 AM »
Guys,

Yet another pickle . I am in need of a new clutch kit and flywheel for my E30 31.8IS 1990 H reg it finally gave up the ghost at a 175k.

Need a bit of advice guys, I have heard that the E30 325i clutch and flywheel is lighter and better for my car as it gives it a better off the line take off, however need a bit of direction please, do I go for the upgrade?

If so what would you guys recommend?

Tempted to get a lightened flywheel the one on the link above looks nice but the price of 480 pounds puts me off.

Would it be wise to get a standard clutch and flywheel from euro car parts and get the flywheel itself lightened and balanced professionally.

I am in no rush at al as the car is off road chilling ., I would like to improve acceleration just for them one off santapod days and the once in a blue moon of the lights in town driving ..
Any thoughts.......................................................

All help and advice is much appreciated
