i have a 89 535 ( e34 ). turbo
i used a e34 m5 clutch set up, with a e28 solid flywheel.
i,ve had it for about a year already, but it has never felt like it should.
i could barely break tires loose in second. plus when power shifting hard from 1st to 2nd, and 2nd to 3rd, you can feel the slipage a lot.
plus the clutch pedal felt much weaker than before, like if it needed to bled.
any ideas? or similar problems?or alternatives?
what i changed new:
e34 m5 disc, cover bearing
what i changed used:
e28 535 flywheel ( it was cut before instalation )
what i did not change:
clutch fork, fork pivot, slave cylinder, and stud for the slave cylinder.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
what type of clutch do u guys have?
so you only used the clutch disc? That could be your issue, lack of clamping force. The two are made to be used as a set.
I am using the e34 M5 disc and pressure plate and my clutch has worked fine at 10psi. After driving around with the M5 clutch in the e28 the first time I drove my 323i I thought the clutch had gone.

i did change both as a set, disc and cover.
( i dont think u can get them seperate )
however a fact i forgot to mention, when i measured both complete flywheel w/clutch set ups, to see how deep each was, the m5 was not as deep as the 535 set up.
So bmw told me that should be the reason why my pedal feels soft: because it was reaching the fork later than the original one.
but i still cant add up why that would have anything to do with slipage
