Ok then i am assuming that its hydraulic adjusted

If you did it yourself, you might want to be sure you put all the fun hydraulic stuff back together correctly.. and if you had a shop do it.. well, the job should be warrantied, take it back to em and say fix this you stupid ********:madfawk:

keep in mind, i dont know much about the newer integra's hydraulic clutch systems..

i've noticed the squeaking lead to slave cylinders blowing on the clutch system.

it's a cheap fix if it does break. as long as it engages fine you shoudl be money.

cause about the only thing you can **** up in a clutch install is. greasing up the new throw out bearing properly.

if the clutch isn't installed properly, the tranny is a ***** to put back on.

ok now its starting to make alittle bit of clicking noises like a the notches or something as i release slowly... and could this be the throw out barring not lubed right or maybe i need to change fluids? at first it was just a squeek but now the clicking and its releaseing a tad bit higher than it should.... and where it use to release it gets tightened up when releasing slowly... i dont think the shop lubed the throw out barring....... i know i have a warrenty but thought i might ask for more opinions befor i go all pissed off at them...

Throw out bearing i think. It can cause the squeaking noise if not lubed, and can cause the clicking noise as well.

i talked to the guy at the shop and he said that because they were brand new parts that he didnt have to lubricate the throw out barring.... WTF is this true? he refuses to do it also... is this my problem then?

Sounds like the TO bearing to me.

Did he install the bearing that came with the Exedy kit? Its a piece of **** from what Ive seen. I keep telling you guys to avoid Exedy and pay a bit more for ACT, but no one listens!
