Ever hear of a manual? You can pick one up at an auto store or the public library, its not like you have a Ferrari.

chill out 1320, maybe if he wanted to get a manual, he'd probably go out and get one. but since he asked the board, its probably because he does not want to go out and purchase it. So, if you have nothing nice to say, please, dont say it.

So let me get this. Someone is going to explain step-by-step on how to install a clutch and flywheel to someone who has probably never installed one (thus the question). Its not quite as simple as throwing on a cold air intake or brake pads. You pretty much need a book unless you've done it before.

Thanks for the back MyFirst4G.

I can't take hardly any credit for replacing this. A freind of mine who owns a '91 AWD turbo really made it all possible, it's nice to know that all DSM owners are not the same. I was just asking for a little advice, I guess next time I'll have to specify that I'm only lookig for advice from someone who actually knows.

It has all been installed (+/- minus 4.5 hours), and I did have a haynes manual which I couldn't find(so I didn't want to buy another one), but I found it before I started.

I should have included, that I have an aluminum fidanza flywheel, and an exedy race clutch. I wasn't sure if that would change anything, but I found all the needed info, and all is well.

Nope, got it from clutch city online ,full kit for almost 310 shipped overnight, it's the full faced organic disk. I called around 6pm, and it was at my door around 1pm the next day. Because it was so late, the guy had to drop it off on the way home...that's awesome service. It would have been 259 shipped, by ground, but I needed it right away.

I love the clutch, and flywheel. But I had a blowout and spunout and wrecked. I think everything will be repairable though, insurance will check it out in the next couple days, I hope it's covered.

Damn man, i hope they can fix your car, and tell the insurance company that you had all kinds of stuff on your car and they will give you like MADD money, my cuz did that, he put on a cheap tip and said it was a Greddy exhaust on his 300ZX!! thats a dual exhaust that costs like 1000 bucks! Well, do shit like that and try and get madd money from them! Well, good luck and drive safe! yea, right........
