hey guys I want to know what the average charge for changing the clutch on the evo x..... what you guys have paid.... because I want to change mine but.... I heard its expensive..... and who you recommend


thanks...

 

Since your in VA, might be worth the drive if your able, go to Shep trans or Buscher. Both are in NE Ohio. They are fairly cheap compaired to rest and it will get done right.

 

avg is around $500 to install a clutch

 

^^^ if they know what their doing.

 

$500 sounds resonable......

 

If you're so inclined, there's a nice how to Hollywood made on clutch swaps. Diy.... I personally don't want to drop my transmission, but if you can, save big cash

 

In the area there are a few shops- PTuning in Manassas is a good place- or up in MD there is UCS Performance or Atlantic Motorsports. Any of these places would get the job done right

 

what clutch are you looking at?

-anthony

 

a buddy of mine who owns a shop says the "book" says 5.1hrs in labor for an x, so whatever their hourly rate is.

 

well I have been told that one of the best setups is act extreme pressure plate with organic street clutch.... I have done some research and check some prices non the internet... but if you give me a good deal I can buy it from you...

 

why would you need the extreme? what kind of power you looking for down the road?

I just bought the ACT ME1-HDSS myself along with streetlite FW. I plan to do BBX and that will be plenty adequate.

 

dont know yet ... i'm thinking at least 500hp... but something daily driving ...

I was looking at the atp gt35 kit.... but need to do a little of more research .....

how much your clutch will handle?

 

around 500 is fair for someone to change your clutch

 

500 sounds good.. but personally, I'd do it myself. Not a crazy hard install, but its just me... I've only done 4 clutch installs, 3 of them in a K20.

As for the ATP Kit, it is an awesome kit. I had it in my Mazdaspeed 6 when it was first released, and had no regrets. The guys there are knowledgeable and make some good stuff.

We stock ATP Turbo kits in house from time to time, and are an authorized dealer. Feel free to shoot me a PM if you have any questions regarding their products, I'd be glad to help!

the ATP kit fot the MS6's were terrible... fitment sucked, you had to cut your return line to make it work, and they made no power... definitely not a good choice.
