Currently have an e34 535i set up in my e30, the clutch is starting to slip so since its going to need changing ive been looking at changing to an e28 535i clutch and flywheel.

Done plenty of searching can anyone who's done the swap just confirm what i need:
e28 535 Flywheel
e28 535 Flywheel Bolts (as i hear there shorter)
e28 Clutch

Is that literally all i need? Will my e34 starter/release bearing be fine with it and also heard about a flywheel spacer, again will my e34 one be fine?

Thanks

You needed to post this in M30 section to get better answers as i know a few guys are running them.Gareth, Zaust Charle30...

My set up is an E28 525i fly (there lighter than 3.5 ones) with an E28 535i clutch, release bearings are the same as E34.

Not sure on the starter as mines not been started yet but ive got The E34 535i one bolted up ready.

I can now confirm the E34 starter works fine, it spun my M30 over lovely :D
