hey
How much does it usually cost to install a clutch? also, about how long does it take for a shop to do it? i'm jus asking to i get an idea so when i take it they don't rip me off.

 

At absolutely most is 300 smackers if they provide the clutch. If you provide the clutch, it should be under 200 bucks.

As for length, it depends on the shop being busy or not.

 

ok good thats about what i thought...you think i would have to leave the car there overnight??

 

I don't think they should . . . a tranny shop should finish it at most 4 hrs (have to be really slow since they have all the equiptment).

Of course, with your TC, you better insist that they finish it. I wouldn't pass the notion that one of their yahoo might take it for a spin. Ask for time span and bring it early in the morning. Take notes on overall mileage and condition of the car.

 

zlancer my friend it is gonna cost ALOT more then 200 for labor

i had mitsu do one cost me 850 with clutch, disk, bearing

i had the labor priced out a few places 6.6 hours
im gonna do mine myself ill let you knwo hwo it comes out when i get the lsd

 

BM Tranny in Bound Brook will do it for $300 for installation.

 

Damnit, I gotta take a trip to that place. I keep hearin' about them. Our tranny is identical to the Mirage, right?

 

im not sure about that engine code is diferent so id assume tranny would be diferent fit maybe parts interchange but case wont

 

Considering we have the same block, we probably have the same tranny too. We're more or less running overbored 4g93's so I don't know why Mitsubishi would create a new transmission when they could use an existing one. ...especially considering we're all aware of how many recycled parts are in our cars.

 

Gentleman... Stupid question....

If we had access to a lift and air tools... How hard is this to do? Might seem like a very stupid question. However, in my CRX, replacing my pressure plate and my slave cylinder was nothing. However, that was on a 91 Honda... 2002 Mitsubishi .. Just wondering guys.. Don't beat me up to bad...

 

ehh i don't really feel like dropping out my tranny. i did that one too many times in my school's autoshop. i don't like tranny's and tranny's don't like me..
..yeah we have the same tranny as the Mirage except something in it i forgot. like the pressure plate shape or sumthing like that.. Mitsiman comfirmed most of the parts tho.

 

Me and a friend who works at a shop replaced the entire transmission in an old pickup in about 8 or 9 hours... it is a real hassle to get in there, I would pay to have it done.

 

i work at a mitsu dealer, and according to the techs, the tranny is a ***** to remove, if thats any help i don't know

 

Pressure plate was the same but the clutch plate was slightly different. Essentially, we have the same tranny as the Mirage save for a slightly lower final drive ratio to compensate for the extra weight.

 

There is a difference in dropping the tranny and replacing a clutch. A clutch is much easier, and cost will be cheaper if you have the parts already.
