Has anyone installed a clutch stop yet?

Any thoughts on a clutch stop for the M3/4? The clutch is nice and soft but seems to engage about 2/3 point.

Good question. I've done this on every M so far. The F80 doesn't need it as badly as the past cars, but it would be nice to have the option.

I guess this is not a very popular subject. Or the majority of the owners have the slush box

The UCP is a must for the plastic mass-produced pedal on 6MT cars:



Feel free to check the vendor's section for more info or PM me directly.

The fact that you call it that reveals that you don't know what it is or how it works.

Finally got my clutch stop in the mail today. I installed it myself in less than 5 minutes. I love it, the clutch grabs pretty much as soon as I lift my foot. The shifts are way faster and cleaner. Definitely worth the 10 bucks.

I'll spend a month or so and see if I can get fully comfortable without but if not I'll be getting one. The initial impression is that the car will benefit from it, the travel is a bit long and the engagement point a bit high but I need more time to see how I adjust.

Super late to the game on this convo. Would this fit into a F10 N55?
