Clutch Workshops - WA

[Guest]

It takes between 8 - 10 hours to remove and replace the gearbox (thats taking your time and being careful. The wiring is very brittle). I have used the clutch factory (dowd street) in welshpool for all my clutch plate and pressure plate work.

update: Ended up getting my 100,000km service and clutch change at Ben Tan auto over in Jandakot.
He has worked on a silver leggie before mine, X17X reincarnated perhaps which did a 100k km service there. The car feels great and all seems good clutch wise too.
Great price for the combined work, the only complaint I had was being told that the gearbox fluids were slightly leaking only after the car was already fully assembled. :001_huh:

Apparently the seal below which I supplied in the hope would be the gearbox seal stopping the leak was also 'wrong' and didn't fit.

Went to Tokyo Motorsports

They fitted my Nick Mann evo flywheel conversion (~$75 AUD), an evo flywheel that I supplied (~$120 AUD), and, a clutch kit which was apparently an Exedy MBK-7420HD.

Total cost was $2038.50 drive in/out including oils, clutch kit, rear main seal, etc. They quoted $1938 but they had to bleed the clutch, adjust the pedal and such.. plus they also spent some time trying to source a new front engine mount (its fairly cactus) and fixing up a couple omissions in my engine bay.

Compared to my previous clutches, the pedal feel is quite hard.. I only hope this means that it will never slip in 1000 years. Stalled it out of the workshop though, hah.


Seemed to know exactly what they were doing, was done in 1 day flat, took a second day but was ready by 9:30am which was tem just trying to chase up the engine mount.


Highly recommended.

I have a Nick Mann adapter kit I never used if anyone is chasing one for use with a similar evo setup on the VR4...
