Single Mass Flywheel Stock Clutch Options

[lukaszjdm]

I recently did the clutch about half a year ago on my 325, i used the cm racing stage 2 kit from eBay. I was driving one day and heard something get destroyed inside the trans. That was a couple weeks ago, car sat since and i pulled the trans off today and found that the eBay clutch disintegrated and on the side facing the pressure plate half of the friction material was missing. Traces of the material were apparent when removing, but my question lies here. This is my daily, and for longevity and reliability purposes, I decided to go stock clutch. The pressure plate is probably toast but I believe I can just resurface the flywheel since its a single mass. Im looking for the more cost effective options, and would preferably like to keep the single mass, because I enjoyed the feel. So, I was wondering would the OEM sachs kit on fcp work on the single mass from the stage 2 kit, it states its only for dual mass, so thats my question. There is also a Valeo kit https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw...h-kit-52281209 which specifies its not for dual mass flywheels, but states its only for a valeo single mass. Would any of these options work for that oem+ feel with the single mass? Also, wouldnt the stage 2 kit flywheel also take a 328/m3 clutch and pressure plate? Im also trying to order from FCP euro basically cause of their lifetime warranty. Havent really seen any threads covering this topic, thank you for whatever input. Anything is appreciated.

I think the combo generally is E34 M5 spring hub clutch disk w/E36 M3 pressure plate. Sachs make components that fit this application.
M3 is larger diameter than 323/325/328 so you will have to figure what works.

I think theres only 2 kinds of e36 clutch parts.
Smaller Getrag clutch, larger zf clutch.
The m3 got it's own tob that's a bit taller to engage the clutch sooner.

Any solid flywheel just needs a sprung clutch.
