"stage 2 clutch"... I hear about this brand all the time, but I've never seen one.

OKAY THESE IS THE THING I JUST FOUND OUT ABOUT THESE LABJUNKIES&gt; my friend got the same swap around march this year , and he aint no mechanic so when he got the car a week later he felt everything was good, he just felt the idle was kinda high. but couldnt comfirm since he had a 96 civic cx and that mdel dnt have a tach....
so now that our friend goes to UTI he would try to figure out the idle problem, he came up with that the O2 sensor is missing and there is a vacum leak.

recently he called me to warn me about LABJUNKIES because a week ago he switched wheels and noticed that his lower left engine mount was broken, so he when and bought a new mount and installed it.. when he was done he went to the other side and check the lower right mount......and guess what LAB JUNKIES did..... lol no lower mount at all.. no engine stopper,, it was cmpletely missing the lower right tranny mount and bracket...lol....HE WAS PISSED!!!!!


once again he is not a mechanic

but im still think about it, ill just tke my friend to review there wrk before i leave the shop

these are my homies down there in san bernardino and just like any other shop they have there pros and cons on street talk, but believe it or not this shop has more good than ever bad. like you said for one thing, best prices and good work within 40miles of the 909 area code. Like someone mentioned, if your gonna get work done and take it in to get swapped any place you should always check the work before leaving. But throughout all chris at the lab knows his stuff, if you do decide to take your business there, get in good with that guy. PS- L's has street credit also but not to sure about his prices. goodluck

thats hasport mounts eliminated that mount but then again they are made from steel or some outher kind of metal. If there was no need for that mount then why would the bracket just snap of, he doesnt race so doesnt drop clutch and shiftin is so smooth.
