thats what i like to hear, s*** is too expensive these days and "car people" dont have to really know about cars anymore with all of this bolt on s***. get to the roots. innovate. make s*** on your own and appreciate it. i respect that.

All of the parts for the coils have been purchased. Now just waiting for it all to get here. I went with BILSTEIN instead of afco.

Ive been looking for a way to relocate the sway bar. Need to get under there and really look. Installing my clutch next week, ill do it then

 

[Protege03ak46]

Started my clutch install today.

The new piece: Exedy Stage 1.

Didnt feel like messing with the wheel bearing's and I dont have a socket big enough to get the bolt off. Said, eff it and took the whole hub off.

After 9 hours, The tranny popped off. Ill finish tomorrow, hopefully.

 

[xDJ DUBx]

I loathe clutch installs with a deep deep passion.

 

[HKPRO5]

Yep subbing your thread. Love your Protege.

Changing the clutch sucks! Took me 3 days.

 

[Protege03ak46]

Yeah. Just started back up. Can't get the ******* flywheel off. Stupid bolts arnt budging. Fml

 

[justanothermp5]

impact gun FTW

 

[HKPRO5]

I had to kick my socket wrench to get the bolts off. (this was before I got my impact set)
