I've done em in a little over 4 hours on jackstands in my driveway, not fun, but doable

 

When mine fails you should help me out. I'll bring liquor, beer, and ho's.

 

that sounds like a plan, I got everything set up in my garage now, and closer than the other spot you met me at.

 

Nice man, I'll have to check out your new place sometime. As a matter of fact I am headed to long island this coming weekend for some memorial day celebrations

Oh, and the tune you uploaded to my car is still holding up BEAUTIFULLY. I still can't get over the whole fiasco we dealt with uploading that tune to my wacked-out ECM.

The car literally puts a smile on my face every day I drive it. ha

 

saying this must mean you sir know how to turn a wrench lol.
i did it in about 6 hours total on a lift at where i work. another 30 min or so tweaking lil things that were missed. took a lot of bleeding for the clutch to feel good.

 

lol that actually came up in conversation the other night. I'll actually be out in LI on sunday at my friends hot rod bbq in hicksville, be back home monday morning if you want to swing through on the way back (if it's early lol) I'm right off I87

That was rushing lol, done a few already, but usually it takes about 5-6 hours not killing myself

 

LOL!

I'll be RIGHT by you, I'm going to Levittown. I'll shoot you a text when I'm on my way back for sure

 

sounds good to me man.
I'll be out there in the good ol FD. 15.5 psi now on pump gas and meth. should be in the 430whp range as it sits right now.

 

That's legit.

 

how much was it??

 

how much was what?
the clutch?

 

anyone know of a cheap place to get replacement E10 inverted torx for cheap? i stripped a few gettin the pressure plate out. dealer wants $20 for all six...

doing my clutch 2 sundays from now. if anyone wants to come and help feel free! ill supply the beer and food lol

 

so i did my clutch for the first time.everything went well except for getting the transmission back in. used the alignment tool but still gave me a hard time. finally got it in and i start to bleed the clutch.i look under the car as the fluid was still decreasing and this is after almost a full bottle of brake fluid. all the fluid was leaking out which my luck thats only one thing. bad clutch slave cylinder. so now i have to take everything back out! whoever is the genius that designed this car is a moron.worst clutch job ive ever dealt with in my entire life! end rant.lol

 

are new flywheel bolts REQUIRED?

 

I would say yes. can you get away without them? Sometimes. Did you torque and angle torque? Some people over torque the bolts and its over.

If you have trouble getting the transmission back in place, u may damage the tob/ should slide in easy. If you have to force it, then its not right.


good luck.

 

figure id ask. since 50+ bucks for 8 bolts is kinda pricey but if i have to. i guess i have 2

 

if you dont have an angle torque wrench, its 37 ft lbs + 25 degrees/ do the first torque, and mark the bolts. hex point to point. then mark the socket. put the socket on and move it one hex mark to the next = 25 degrees.

 

Looks like the link with pics is gone

 

PM me I have the service manual i can email to you in .pdf.

 

Hey Chris, Just curious if you have that service manual in PDF still?
