parts locally?

I'm having bearing noise problems, not sure if its just the clutch and or tranny.. Any suggestions on where to take my '94 Civic Ex MT to get it checked and or worked on? I need reliable parts / work and a decent price..

Any suggestions on where to buy replacement parts for the clutch or which to get, as well as for an Ex tranny would be appreciated.

thanks,

Has the clutch or tranny totally given out on you yet?

I'm having bearing noise problems, not sure if its just the clutch and or tranny

Is this accompanied by anything mechanically different (ex. does not go in gear, pops out, stuck in gear, gos in gear without the influence of the clutch, etc,etc,etc) other than the audible noise you hear? Because im assuming you are saying you hear a squeek when you step on the clutch. Have you actually popped the hood yet or went under the car to pinpoint where excactly this noise is coming from? Hows the clutch fluid level?

Clarification is needed, because this noise can be other things. Anyways, here are is a nice classified section for you to find a new tranny and clutch (thats if it is that). Other things can be found here too.

ok checked them out... friend still pushing using the first mechanic, but more and more I talk to him the less I feel comfortable with him. friend mentions that if anything, I should atleast go with honda original bearings..
Should I worry about that, how reliable would you guys say Exedy standard clutch parts are? Would I be any better off spending the extra $200 on original honda clutch parts ( I prefer not to spend anything more than I have to ) but I dont want to have to get the work re-done (spend more on labor) because something didn't hold up just because I spent less on the parts the first time.

anyone have any recommendations as to who to use here in Miami, Florida?

I get a whirring/grinding sound when I let go of the clutch pedal and it goes away when I step on it.

I get a second grinding sound at higher rpm, just before shifting during 1st and 2nd gear.. I think, I can't pinpoint this one.. It might make this sound all the time, just gets louder or more audible once at higher rpm.

I also have a *slight* problem getting into 3rd and 5th, if I shift "dirty" or quickly it seems to crunch in, especially 5th. If I slow it down and take my time or hold in the clutch pedal longer as I ease it into 3rd it goes in smooth, 5th almost always crunches or clunks in some way reguardless, just less so when I'm gentle..

yup, bearing but if you're really grinding back it could be something else on top of the bearing.
