Finally got my Exedy Stage 1 Organic Clutch put in. I also put on my Megan Racing Rear Upper Strut, which I love. When I bought this car, at the beginning of December, I knew the clutch was slipping... The clutch slave cylinder was leaking - it was all down hill from there. Anyways, here's pictures:


The new clutch kit!

Intake, battery etc. taken out.

It's all coming out!

Getting the tranny out.

There she is!

The hole.

Look at how bad that flywheel is!

Machine shops work wonders... 2 turns for $42.

Flywheel back on.

Mmm Exedy!

Tokico Shocks + under the engine.

Getting the tranny back in which is a pain!

The hour drive to pick up a new clutch slave cylinder that fell apart when taking the line off.

There it is.

Everything is back in!

She runs!



Total time= 12 hours. +3 hours for a 1 hour trip (there and back) to get the flywheel turned (took an hour) +2 hours for a 1 hour trip (there and back) to get a new slave cylinder.

Let me know what you think!

Glad to hear everything went well. Hey we got the same paint.....hehe, Clean engine bay even tho its a f22.

 

good job man.

i just put an m2a4 in my prelude a few weeks ago. definitely a lot of fun

 

Thanks man! Everything went smooth except that the guy who had the car before me, had an alarm put in it, and whoever put it in was a MORON! So needless to say, when I put everything back together, my car wouldn't turn on. My lights were blinking, like as if my hazards were on, but they weren't. I found a black wire (that I thought was to a vacuum line or something?) and just grounded it, and the car started. I wish I knew more about electrical wiring and **** cause I want to pull that spagehtti crap that is sitting behind my head unit... the box and all it's wire madness always falls on to my foot when I'm gasing lol. Stupid idiots.

 

Very nice

 

Nice work dude, im thinkin about going with that clutch kit also.

 

Thanks guys!

 

Sweet, I have a Prelude S thats gonna need a new clutch soon too. How many miles did you get out of the original clutch?

 

138k

 

Very nice . btw, what wheels are those?

 

thumbs up for a primered lude and another do it yourselfer.

 

18" Tenzo R's wrapped in Kumhos. Very nice, but I would rather have them in 17's lol. And thanks for checking out the DIY.

 

Just to let you guys know, the clutch is almost done being broken in (i've been driving the roads for pointless reasons) and it is so amazing! I highly recommend this kit if your lude is a daily driver.
