hey i have a 97 LS with about 92k miles on it and its time for a new clutch how much should i expect to pay at acura/honda for a new clutch install and resurface of the flywheel?

Thanks,
chris

just wanted to know so i know if i'm getting screwed or not, my guess was around 600 but i didn't know

 

your probally looking to spend over $600.00 at a dealer

 

Yup, I'd say around half a grand at the dealership. It will be done right though.

 

Figure $300 labor and whatever the parts cost.

 

$300 :no: , i got quoted $800 my friend.

my friend at StreeSpeed Inc. will do it for $350 also installing syncros. me and my uncle will take off the tranny and bring it to him and re-install it later, this way i save $300. if you have any friends who are knowledgeable about cars, this would be a great way to save some money, if not save up and go to the dealership.

 

acura is sayiing 873 for clutch, pressure plate, and bushings, and an additional 300 for a new flywheel and they don't do resurfacing so a new flywheel would be my only option at the acura dealership.

damn i hate the stealership in indy

so my other option is to purchase aftermarket parts and have a local shop install them, so what would be a good recommendation for clutch/flywheel combo for an everyday driver?

 

how about a specialty shop?

 

are you looking for a performace clutch or just an OEM replacement?

 

haha, well i found out while my brother was borrowing my car b/c i didn't take it to college he decided to "adjust" the brake pedal and well instead of tightening it he loosened it so i adjusted the clutch pedal and took it out for a spin and there is no slip or anything. The clutch just felt really odd to me and the play was over half the pedal b4 it engaged.

so i don't need a clutch

 

$800 labor? You were gonna get raped. I guess they figured you for an easy target.
