Hi,

My WRX 94 Import clutch is slipping and I need to replace it. The garge has quoted me a fair price but I may tackle the job myself.

Has anybody else done it them selves and was it easy etc..?

Cheers

Sorry m8, never done 1 myself, however I see that your in the same area as me, so I was wondering what you were quoted and where, as mine needs doing asap aswell.

i think you have to lift the eng half out ;-( best to get a good mech to help or do it!.

The best price I got is a guy who specilizes in Scoobys and is the guy I bought my first WRX off in Hannam, Bristol and will do it all in for £350 + £30 to skim the fly wheel if required. If you need more info let me know

Cheers

One other thing, As your local have you changed your standard dump valve to an after market one and still have the standard one .

doing a clutch is not that difficult if you're handy with spanners, BUT the engine does not need to be removed, although the gearbox does.... and that is quite heavy, and can be awkward if you don't have the use of ramps... if you're not at least a competent diyer.... let someone else do it!!

Yeh I have a BOV on mine, however it was already fitted when I bought the car, so don't have the std 1 sorry m8

£350 all in, not 2 bad, is that a std clutch tho ? or organic ?

I got a Borg and whatever clutch for £140 on ebay, had a quote from a local Jap imprt specailist for £130 fitting. Can't go wrong for that

That sounds a fair price for fitting. Who was it who would fit it for that.
