Clutch replacement

[millzy]

Hi everyone.

My clutch went last night on my way home from work.

Just collected my car the night before after getting other work done.

So being absolutely skint at the moment. Any suggestions for the cheapest way to get my car running again.

I was thinking of buying a second hand one. But with the reliability issue and not having to want to replace it twice. A new uprated one may be better for me in the long run if i can take the hit financially.

Car will be running around 350

Don't know where to go with this one. Any suggestions please?

Also how big of a job is it. Could you do the job at home with a mechanic or is it a ramp job?

cheers.

I have a good uprated flywheel and exedy clutch kit if interested, only removed due to rebuild and better clutch to take power.

Can take some pics if interested.

As long as the clutch is from reliable source it should be ok. The job 'can' be done at home but not reccomended as its a pain of a job to do on you back on the drive with precariously placed jacks ect, having said that if you know a bit about mechanics and havr the patience of a saint then go for it. I vowed if I done my clutch again the engine would be getting dropped out the bottom for various reasons, not much extra work to be honest

Tommi-iow.. I might be interested in your clutch and flywheel, is it an exedy stage 1 clutch? And whats the flywheel? Will it fit on my evo 8 MR FQ340? Its running 395bhp and similar amount of torque.
