Austin, TX EVO CLUTCH JOB
Does anyone know of a good reliable shop in Austin, Texas that can do a clutch job?
The Mitsu Dealers in the area are asking $1400 labor for 6-speed which is totally insane. I would like to do the work myself but will need assistance.
Anyone with any experience in the area?

He did it at the old mitsu dealership that is now closing before he moved.
He worked it out with the service manager that he was working on a family members car.
I supplied the parts, money and he did the work.
Yes, he did a good job.

MZM quoted me $850 for putting in the Exedy Twin, $750 for a single. If it makes any difference, which it probably will, it's on the 6-speed. Soul Speed are suspension and tire specialists, while MZM specializes on Evo's or STI's.

if mzm is charging 100 extra dollars to do a twin clutch then a single plate, you should NEVER go there. it is EXACTLY the same job, same time, same labor etc.... therefor it should be the same price.
6 speed cars are harder to do and therefor constitute charging more for that. i charge 625 for a 6 speed, and 525 for a 5 speed.

MZM did the clutch on my STI and did a great job. They are not cheap. Soul Speed mechanics have changed an Evo clutch before and have dealt with exotic cars as well. So that is why I listed them as a possibility. I am sure you could call Boost Logic for a quote too. If you were in DFW, KevinD is most reasonable and is expert on Evos. He changed a clutch for a friend of mine.
