do it yourself man, prob one of the easyer mechanical things to do on a car. all you need is jack, 4 jack stands (or a fucking h lifter), a nice ratchet, ratchet sizes 10mm to prob 22mm, a long ass extension, flathead screw driver (to stick behind flywheel to lock crank while tightening/loosening clutch) some buff biceps to slide that bastard ka tranny out of there. tranny fluid, as you will dump a good amount when dropping the tranny, given that you where smart enough to remove the drive shaft beforehand. clutch alignment tool, should come with kit. most of the time theyre blue. did i get everything? if you live close superK, ill give you a hand. ive done far to many clutches on various rwd cars, especially 240's, but ill keep doing them. its fun. bitches!

Those XTD clutches go for really cheap, but why would they cost 1/2 of what most major brands sell for?

I personaly would get a company thats been around for decades and built up a good reputation.

Call up Clutch City. Like i told you, hes a great japanese (probably korean) guy, local custom shops buy clutches from him. He charges $115 for the Exedy oem replacements, which is about $10 more if you buy from Ebay. I personally would support someone locally, and you can see it before you buy it.

Clutch installation usually run between $200-300
