clutch finally went out today...
but it got me out of work early though. I knew I was going to need to get a new clutch soon, but soon has become now.
I made a bunch of calls looking around for the best deal and I found ABD Racing. I'm upgrading to a stage II clutch since I plan on going BT sometime soon and I'm going with a 12 lb aluminum flywheel as well. ~1500 bucks out the door.
I've never had to look into this kind of work before. Is this a decent deal? I feel like I'm getting pretty reasonable pricing, but I don't have any frame of reference here. Your input is needed.

sounds kinda high to me. ive priced out stage 4 kits for less then that. look into southbend and SPEC. if theres any big shows comming up that you can wait for they sell them really really cheap there.

go with southbend instead. i got my stage 5 clutch and lwfw for like 700, so you could get a stage 3 and lwfw for around 5 or 6.
i dont know if he still does it, but there's a guy on audizine called slayerrule, who can get you a discount. its worth askin

So I bought it before close of business today so they could order the parts in ASAP and get everything installed sometime in the middle to end of next week. I'll definitely keep southbend in mind if I decide I need to go stage III or higher though. Thanks for the heads up, even if it is a little too late.

You should have hit me up since it seems your in socal and I could have gave you a deal and even lined up a shop to do the install. I sell a Southbend package which an be ordered with a 9 lbs, 11lbs, 15lbs or 20lbs flywheel. I also sell Spec and Clutch Masters.

I've only ordered the parts. I still need someone to install all of this. I know I could do it, but I don't want to deal with the hassle of disconnecting the driveshaft, completely removing the tranny, and then screwing with the install. what shops did you have in mind? ABD is looking to charge me about 600 for the install. if you know a place that can beat that, let me know. thanks man.
