WTB: Turbo clutch

[craiggroves91]

Looking for a new or very lightly used turbo clutch.
Maybe a spec stage 3, southbend, or f1 racing.

Needs to be capable of around 350 + ft lbs.

thanks

eBay has the f1 for pretty cheap. Check it.

The reviews are pretty positive on it arent they?

Use a complete stock s52 flywheel+clutch kit. Directly fits into the place of original m20 clutch. Drivable daily in third world traffic.

Fits perfect like an Oem bmw part should.

Cheaper than anything, easily found used. Pass on the mainlander china crap, use German parts on your bmw.

Proven to 350rwhp by many.

Just bolts all right up and fits with the g260 no problem?

I already bought a m20 flywheel it was only 50 bucks.
a oem clutch and lightweight flywheel for my e36 m3 was like 450 or so i think.
Not sure

The f1 is fine and proven to be good. It's remarkably great actually.

I remember reading over on e30tech some guy said don't use the bearing they give you, use an oem one. I think his didn't last too long. I'll look for the thread.

Wait yes. I remember that I also used an oem one just because.
I have a wee bit noise in neutral when the car is on. Dunno if that's the ole getrag rattle though.

an OEM throwout probably isnt too much is it?
