UUC's exclusive-design "sprung hub" clutch design Stage II lightweight flywheel has been named one of European Car magazine's "Top 10 Products"
"Stage 2" racecar technology you can drive on the street...
Tipping the scales at only 8.5lbs, this aluminum flywheel boasts the same great features as our Classic flywheel, but is designed to use the clutch disk, pressure plate, and throw-out bearing from the 3.6 liter E34 M5.
This clutch has several advantages for the enthusiast driver:
- Maintaining the reliability and over-the-counter availability of a BMW factory part.
- Greater clamping force than standard 3-series clutch.
- Incorporates a sprung-hub design to minimize gear rattle, includes heavy-duty steel pressure plate.
The advantage of a sprung-hub clutch design is improved resistance (and in many cases, complete elimination) of the residual chattering noise at idle that some lightweight flywheel-equipped cars can experience.
Because BMW spec'd this clutch for use on the powerful S38-series engine in the M5, it is up to the task of handling the output from a modified M50-series motor (all '92-'99 6-cylinder E36 3-series and M3, E34 525i, and Z3/MZ3).
UUC customers have been using the Stage 2 & M5 clutch setup in turbo or supercharged M3s and MZ3s with fantastic results. Our own testing has shown the M5 clutch to reliably handle in excess of 450hp.
The UUC Stage 2 flywheel and clutch assembly has been used in the "test platform" M3 of Eurosport High Performance's supercharger development, reliably handling many miles and dyno runs in this powerful machine.
UUC also provides many US and European turbo and supercharger tuners with the Stage2 setup.
The total weight of the M5 clutch disk and pressure plate combo is greater than that of a stock E36 M3 clutch, so we have reduced the Stage2 flywheel weight to achieve an overall rotating mass that is essentially identical to a typical 11.5lb lightweight flywheel that utilizes the M3 clutch.
You can be assured not only of the performance increase you will experience, but the long-term ease of ownership that comes with knowing a replacement clutch is never any further away than your dealer's parts counter.
