Well I got a clutch for my soon to be Turbo Si. Anyway with the cost of stils having to pay for the install of the Turbo, and tuning of the Hondata, and still having to buy gagues, boost controller, oil cooler, high flow radiator, and a Cowboy Bebop DVD, money isn't all that abundant.

How much more is it goign to cost to install a clutch too?
Think there's a discount on installing everything together, or should a start saving now?

 

IIRC a ACT clutch/TODA flywheel install for my old SI cost about $400ish. (I think)

 

Wow, all this installing crap just doesn't stop. Just when I think I can isntall something.. another new cost just keeps popping up!

 

just open up the yellow pages and start looking for clutch repeir shops. Dont go to dealers cause they usually charge more, go to one of the smaller "mom-and-pop" type shops, it's just like installing a regular clutch.

 

Screw that.... find a local enthusiast who knows what they're doing. Buy them some Taco Bell, a few beers, and drop a little cash on them and you're good to go.

You could always wait until the clutch starts slipping to replace it. For that matter, since you're dropping that much cash anyway, I'd install a lsd while the tranny was off the car.

 

Trust me, I dont 'ahve money to buy a LSD, I'm still paying off the turbo with lots of other things to still pay for!

 

if y ou were in my area i could help u install. Ohhhhh yea, and i spent my money buying the rest of the Cowboy Bebop series

 

I'm buying another one tomarrow.

I think I'm going to look in the yellow pages first, I will compare prices to Payn Tech in Michigan.

 

I got the HK bootleg Perfect Sessions for $37. It's a direct rip of the US region 1 release.

But.. I do have the entire bootleg collection of Dragonball GT, too bad, GT... kind of... sucks. But oh well, I ahve it anyway, and it was real cheap.. say like... free.

Also have bootlegs of all Dragonball Z movies 1-13.

Wait a min, were supposed to be talking about a clutch here!!!

 

i say, invest about $50-100 for a helms manual and do it yourself. it isn't too complicated and the learning experience is great. i did mine myself and i thought i was way in over my head at first, but it was fairly simple and the end result was great.

 

If you're doing a clutch, flywheel and LSD install aren't you gonna need special tools? I know the LSD you definately will need special tools. so you end up buying tools that you'll hardly ever use, or maybe you can rent them somewhere.

 

Nah for installing a clutch you don't need any special tools, just hand tools and an extra set of hands is really helpful

 

what about health hazards? doesn't the clutch system have asbestos dust in there?

I dont remember where I heard that, I think it was out of my Automotive Encyclopedia.

 

Abestos doesn't scare me.. My biggest problem is that... I'm not too great with doing car work. Second, I'd really like somebody to help me do it, but I'm surroundded by a bunch of dorks that have never done it themselves either!

I don't mind doing it, I just don't want to do it myself.
