Hey every one i just got my brand new Exedy stage 1 clutch installed and i have to say i love it! This thing is so awesome i had the stiffest peddle ever for the Longest time for the past 6 months and i just found out today why that is! My Pilot Bearing was shot. I mean most of the Bearings where still there but when my Mechanic handed me the old Clutch and Pilot bearing the Pilot Bearing would grind and rattle and it turned very slow. Oh yeah and the Clutch was down to the Rivets in some parts but in the other parts of the Clutch it was ok. The Fly wheel was fine though surprisingly. I cant believe how much softer My Clutch peddle is at first i was thinking Wow does this Clutch peddle have to be bled more? But then as i drove it in my brother Told me no that's how a Stock clutch is. Im so Excited i feel like im driving a new car i cant believe it. I spent $550.00 and the Job only took like 8 hours which isnt to bad . Well hey ive posted some Pics below of the old clutch . The pics aren't the Greatest but have a look any way you can see how the Clutch was wearing down to the rivets. Ouch! (ricer)(usa)(wrc)(band)
