[zoomspeed05]

yeah i've done my share of clutch replacing but all have been on RWD cars (s13, ae86, sw20). i'll try FWD soon. it was a pain indeed!

I'm about to do the clutch on mine.. Should be a lil easier since the motor is already out of the car.

You *started* doing a clutch at 4 o'clock on a Sunday afternoon?

saved money though

dude i FEEL YOUR PAIN!! i am removing my broke ass tranny, worked from 1130 till 7 and only got to the part where you remove the axles. only problems that we have ran into was the back-up light electrical connectors, and we stripped an old bolt. it isn't super hard work, but it is extremely time consuming since we don't know what we are doing. and its just me, my old man, and my boy HAYNES!! haha

i think burnouts are harder on the throwout bearing than the clutch disk...

idk, i only drove 7k on my car with a decent clutch and now i need a new one, lol

That is insane, DIY clutch install! That's amazing, just simply amazing. I'm imagining how much work that is and all I can say is you guys have skills. Congrats on saving alot of money and getting more experience! DIY rules
