Well lads, new here, have a 325tds, clutch is due a change, after a few skids she starts slipping. I have a potentiometer onto the pump and I am wondering what lads are using clutch wise in the TDs, or even the old landrovers for off roading.
Welcome to the forum.
No diesel E36 was ever sold in the US; had to look it up.
Not quite sure what you mean by "after a few skids she starts slipping", but, truly, that's about the weakest 6 cylinder in an E36, so you really don't need more than a stock clutch. If you want something from a much stronger car, you can use the M3's clutch. Even the US model M3 had an extra 140 horsepower and 45 ft/lbs of torque over the diesel.
That said, if you engage the clutch and THEN accelerate, a stock clutch should last you well over 100k miles.
