I need my clutch and flywheel installed on my wrx. Don't know anyone. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP. I have the whole clutch kit, and flywheel, and an estimate from xat racing for what they would charge (just labor) $290, if anyone can beat that, the job is theirs. CAUTION:IT IS A PULL TYPE CLUTCH- DO NOT TELL ME YOU KNOW HOW TO INSTALL PULL TYPE UNLESS YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH THIS TYPE OF CLUTCH! 813-727-1354, COREY

I'd be the one doing the clutch job if you were to take to XAT (my name is Mike BTW). I'm sure that there are some people here that can vouch for my work and we feel that our pricing is fair.

As for getting it done privately, there are several locals that are more than capable.

Are you slipping badly yet or are you still on the road? Good luck whatever you decide to do.

well, im pretty sure you could go anywhere. I hear XAT does some pretty good work. I know the brothers can do it, but not sure what they charge regularly to the general public.

If you are lookin for warranted work, take it to mastro. Obviously, they arent going to warrant the clutch, but they will on the install.

He already has the clutch and everything,just needs it installed.


So the 290 is just for labor.

Again 500=over 400.

I know what your trying to say,but who's to say the OP didn't get a hook up from a friend of a friend that knows someone that works at XAT?

yea but if youre giving an estimate and say over 400 and you get there and theyre like well its gonna be 599 youre gonna be pretty damn pissed and probably go somewhere else.... obviously none of them got a hook up because of the questions that were askedddddddddd derrrr
