My car has nearly 60k miles and is due for a clutch job. It's beginning to slip. What do you guys think? FLywheel or no flywheel?

Date: Thu, 2 Nov 2000 16:32:01 -0800 From: "Peter Guagenti" <peter@guagenti.com> Subject: Garage Sale! Time for a garage sale of E36 goodies: Factory Armrest - $125 Purchased for my '95 M3, but decided to not do the install. Includes all trim pieces for a complete factory install. Bav Auto sells for $240 -- my loss is your gain BBS RX Wheels (4 - 17x8) - $600 Three are in near perfect condition, one is out of round -- quoted at under $100 to true it (which I can have done for the seller before shipping). Lighted Shift Knob - $60 Installed briefly, but replaced with Momo shifter. ECIS intake kit for Euro HFM - $150 Installed for one month, replaced by custom kit. Factory-look rear spoiler - $100 Unpainted, includes LED. I went with a different spoiler. Rockford Fosgate Component System - $100 Comes with 5.25" kick panel woofer, 1" tweeter, and crossovers. Schroth Harness Pads (Black) - $15 I would prefer a local sale in the SF Bay Area (I will deliver if nearby), but I'm willing to ship. -peterg

Some longer Grade 11 (?) or higher bolts and washers will do it. I think you should be able to do a search for more info on this. IIRC there's even a kit for like $25. You can get at least 2.5d with this method.
