wow...those posts are funny sh*t...No...seriously, I would MUCH rather have you guys do it...I just hate the thought of turning a random stranger loose with my car...especially this one. E VOL IX...Yueng is my brew of choice too...I'm from PA originally so I gotta stick with the "roots" lol
Do I need to bring anything other than the cams?..oil, torque wrench..?

i know this is definately not the spotted forum, (who looks at that anyways), but i saw a WW RS tonite driving on base...it made me happy...but then i got sad because my clutch sucks so bad i drive like a 14 yr old learning to drive a stick. on that note, my new (read as USED and temporary) clutch got in this afternoon, just have to get the throw-out bearing and all my fluids that i wanna change then i suppose i can go to the hobby shop and install it (or go slam my dickie-doo in a car door). im really not looking forward to it cuz ive never touched a clutch before, and i dont have the cash-a-roo to have someone do it...yaya for me. oh, and my POS teg is still not up and running because i havent been able to do the brakes yet...FUN TIMES!

yeah i hear ya. and given the fact that i havent done a clutch before (unless you count shop class in high school when i didnt have to drop it out of the car or wnaything) so i have been calling today and everyone wants like $875 to do it, including resurfacing the flywheel. I did however talk to east coast performance and they said $600...i dunno im gonna keep looking...i dont have a choice but to drive it right now, but it isnt going to be too much longer before it completely ***** the bed...

Ok well to be hoenst with you i have done this job a bunch of times and 600 plus turning the flywheel and replacing the seal is a deal.
It pays 11 hrs to do a clutch so do the math
