    Noob Question.....Which Clutch kit to Order

    Started my M50 swap this week and as we were taking the tranny apart from the motor, realized things were worse than i thought!!

    For some reason or another there was somthing bouncing around in the tranny housing. Upon further inspection, the pressuer plate was ALL F*@#ed up!!! Looked like it was shoot a few times with an aoutomatic beebee gun!! All around the edge of the pressure plate was eaten away by this UFO. Lots of metal fileings and gunk!
    I thought that was the end of it, the fly wheel sufferd some damage, the starter hopusing was chewed up where the flywheel and starter connect, and tere is some wear in the flywheel teeth. This goes to show that you have to thorughly inspect Items that you are purchaseing even though its from a fellow member. (BrendE30)
    Well enough wineing.....seems like i have to order a kit but dont know which one to order. Stock M50 kit or do i have to get an M20 kit( since i have a g260 tranny) Would like to get something a bit better than stock sach kit but dont know if its worth the $$$.

    Shoot me your ideas and sugg. Anything would be greatly appreciated. ThanX!

      Yeah there were a lotta things in that garage that were fubared! Get M20 everything and you're good to go. Starter, flywheel, clutch, tob. If your old starter on the g260 is good use that. If you want to drop some $$ the 618pp with stock disc should handle your setup and give you room for more power later.

        You know...I still don't know if its single mass or duel. I could still get away with using the starter and the flywheel but i just don't want to do something half ass to have to change it down the road, but, money is tight and cant spend the $$ for the new flywheel. Buddy of mine has an m20 flywheel that he might sell to me ;) with enough persuading and then i could just get it lightened.

        So you say just order "m20 everything"? Who do you recommend? Turner? Bavauto? Pelican? Or anyone else?

          What year is your e30? There's a place in CT called www.eeuroparts.com that has the whole M20 clutch kit for $200. I never got a clutch there, but for the stuff I got they had the best price AND I didn't have to wait around cause I just drove over and picked it up. Good guys. They don't like it if you pick it up in person though lol, but I was in a pinch and they helped me out.

            Got it....single mass flywheel. Thinking of going with the Centerforce, mixed emotions. Why waste the $$$? Dont know if it would be a waste...Would the stock work as good? Obviously its better but......... Please some feed back.

                    Ok so my pressure plate is going out and its time to upgrade, what are you thoughts on Sachs performance clutch kits?
