Hmm, ok guess that pic was just for reference then. In that case I'd fall back on the 335is clutch or equivalent.
This is fantastic, very helpful. I really hope they're not using a self adjusting pressure plate, those are absolutely garbage. We will definitely be working to engineer one that does not utilize that. Id like to see if anyone may by chance have any actual photos, that will help drastically. This is a huge help though.
Based on the crazy special service tools needed to remove and reinstall, I'd bet that it is, because things need to be 'clocked' a certain way with rotational tension applied. Certainly different from any other single-plate clutch I've seen or worked on in my lifetime.
Do you have access to the service manual for installing the clutch? I'm curious. It kind of looks like a 5 series clutch as previously mentioned.
The nice thing is if you're replacing the whole thing then you don't need to mess with all that. Most kits would come with their own pressure plate anyway.
This is correct. The special tool is very common on BMW kits and many aftermarket kits come with a similar style tool pre-installed to be removed after installation. It's not a necessary tool, it just makes it easier to install the pressure plate as it keeps the iron plate retracted (as if you're pressing the clutch pedal down).

I'm going out on a limb here and say that must've been user error and not the trend the thread has being following. Reason being is that guys been beating the shit out of his car since he took delivery of it and It definitely isn't past break-in. But hearing that ACT has a possible solution is good news.. I guess we'll have to follow his videos to find out.. ong frfr LOL
We need this as a sticky on in the engine section.
