HI

ok guys if ur going to do ur clucth save ya pennies...your looking at a min $1000 labour no **** you have to remove everthing from the sub frame to the steering rack

thought u like to know
and do it through a mitsu deler or some1 who has a MUT III other ur AYC will be outa wack

 

Can you give more details?

I need my clutch in my 6 changed soon. A mate of mine was going to do it.

If we do it, can we get the AYC realigned later?

 

i would really get some1 else to do it as the AYC needs to reconfigured caus eif it's out the wrong way good night irene... more so ina 7 rather than a 6 but i nknow the 7/8 need to be done or things go wrong

 

You don't have to reconfigure anything to change a clutch in the Evo 6. Had mine done recently, does not disturb the AYC cause its only on the rear. Pretty straightforward but cannot be done easily only because on the point of dismantling of the gearbox housing from the engine block, the throwout bearing is attached on the clutch and has to be pried from a given open window that is normally closed with a rubber seal. If you've done it a million times, its relatively easy. If you've never done it, you will break that part. Get someone who has experience with it.

On the ACD for the Evo 7, yes you need someone who is even better to do a proper job because the subframe of this model is such a ***** to wiggle the gearbox out. Do it the conventional way and the subframe gets scratched and possibly dented. Most just drop the entire motor partially to do it easily but on my Evo 8 with the 6 speed box, its even harder.

 

it's in and man it's good **** u really notice the dif when a clutch grabs

 

I asked my mechanic about the clutch changing proceedure. In a rally they can change a Group N clutch in 45mins. That's with 4 people on the at once. For a customer with a single person working on the car, allow around 5 hours.
