    Quick Question about Sachs Clutches...

    Am I right to assume a stock m20 clutch, will work just fine on my m50 swap?
    Is there a difference for early and late 325i(is,C) cars?

    And where is the cheapest place to order a Sachs clutch online?
    thanks guys...


    And what are the benefits of """sport""" clutches, they seem pointless to me on a stock motor.

    ps. put in general because hardly anyone visits the sub forum

            The M20 kit will definitely be fine with your M50. Hell my Sachs M20 kit from my turbo car has 10,000 boosted miles and looks new!

            What you need is a 533 throwout bearing. It's a little taller. I run them in everything.

                There was a guy on ebay, username newclutch. I bought my whole clutch kit from him for 140 shipped I believe an it was sachs. Changed about a year or two ago and it's been running great to this day.

                  What is a 522 throwout bearing? I broke my throwout a few days ago and I'm collecting parts. Tell me/point me to some more information pl0x?
