Too much power (Manic stage 3 and bigger turbo) for the stock CMS ALL4 clutch. Lasted 18K. Adding a stage 4 clutch this week. The tow truck driver did a great job getting my lowered CM on with out scratching. Now I'm forced to drive the GTR

saw your post on FB Mario, at some point ima need to pick your brain about tunes, and apparently clutch swaps haha. cause I was hoping for big turbo at some point. does this include all the dyno runs that you have done? 18k miles seems really low!

Damn. Our All4 CMS has 70k+ miles still on the original clutch! Of course, it's all stock... but still!

Hit me up when you want to talk. I haven't found a AWD dyno near me yet. 18K is low but Mini shouldn't have used the same clutch they use in a 2wd, 600lb lighter car

Uh no, sorry to hear that. I wonder if one of the upgraded clutch kits from the R56 would fit the Countryman like OS giken and Clutch masters?

All N18 R56 clutches will fit the 2wd or 4wd Countryman

Nice, what brand? I wonder how it will feel going to the single mass on the CM?
