Default Clutch Replacement on 94 Civic EX D16Z6

What is involved, and what do I need besides clutch presure plate, pilot and throwout bearing, going to resurface flywheel, I have an alignment tool and all of the regular tools needed to take everything apart, and jack up my car. Is there anything I need to know, or should know to make things easyer, should I pull just the tranny or is it easyer to pull the motor also?

Ok, I was doing my weekly inspection of bolts and hoses, making sure things are the way they are suposed to be, and it hit me... I have never even looked under my dash to check the clutch and throttle linkage... So I got a flashlight and looked under there and noticed somthing bad, My clutch has been leaking, not enuff to lower the amount of fluid in the resivor, but it is leaking arround the shaft that goes through the firewall and into the master cyledner, there is a rubber fitting, and driping down that rubber fitting was alot of nasty brake fluid, and it looks like it has been this way for a while it has driped, and dried under my carpet, I cleaned everything up and noticed there is play in the shaft, side to side and up and down.... I assume that is not a good thing. I was thinking I need to replace this befor I replace my clutch, how much will this cost me new, or can I rebuild it ? What is better, parts store new, junk yard new, or rebuild kit?

when replacing a clutch,pressure plate, or any of that, i would always go with brand new parts. there are too many variables that could go wrong with buying used parts and is really expensive to fix if something goes wrong.

there is a sticky in this thread by westcoaststyle at the top of the Civic/Del Sol/EL forum called 'Online Resources'. If you are looking to do this yourself, he has a write up in that thread that covers how to change out a clutch.

Its about halfway down the page under Drivetrain and it has bunches of pics and text. Grade A. Kudos to Josh

Hope this helps!!

did you not read my second post? Its my clutch masyer cylender, no shit about the new clutch, im not stuipd enuff to buy a used clutch.... I got an organic Centerforce kit for 500 online, its on its way, I just wanted to replace my clutch master cylender befor I do my clutch, I was wondering if I should buy an aftermarket (new), Stock (new) or Junkyard (used), clutch master cylender? I was lookin around and for a larger displacement I think it was 5/8 its around 70.00, and for a stock new its 30 and junk yard its 8.00... I havent seen a rebuild kit, so I asume there is not one for this job. So Should I go with the larger aftermarket one or stock? What is the difference between the stock one and 5/8?
