As far as warrenty, if you need someone to do it, Marshall and I can highly recommend someone who is a Mitsu tech. He is the only person at a dealership I would EVER let touch my car. And if you think it'll void your mitsu warrenty it won't. He knew I had a clutch in my car and didn't care. It's a wear and tear iten and exedys can be rebuilt for less than half the price of the clutch itself.

worth the money, don't make my mistake, do it once and do it right (TWSS)

yeah i already talked to marshall and ive emailed the guy. my dad just being a dick and is like "well what if he install it wrong and it breaks, some kid isnt just gonna warranty the part"
i mean i dont know why he cares for much, its not like hes paying for ****, hes just saying hes thinks its gonna happen and im gonna have to spend double the money.

Greg is a trust worthy guy. If something were to go wrong he would probably at least fix it with no charge for the labor, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to do a clutch. He's done his fair share & then some. It's a car and a clutch is not a warrentied part.

If you don't mind my asking, how old are you? Your dad sounds similar to mine, he finally gave up trying to tell me what to do with cars when I ripped the N/A motor out of my RX-7 & dropped in a twin turbo from a FD The look on his face was priceless to say the least.

close, mine is the 42" v. i think the v is better than the s, it has more hdmi ports on quick glance. that looks like a killer deal tho.

well you are 18, flack from your parents is to be expected - especially with such a ridiculously expensive hobby. if you go with guys that a bunch of us back - you should have no issues.

My parents love to say i told you so..... and i'm almost 30.

I get flack and I'm 22... They said that about the motorcycle.. the lancer.. the galant.. hell they said it about my 1000$ bmx bike.. haha
I just kept telling them the fact was I worked my **** off to buy them and it was my money. However everytime I have an issue with the lancer (even fan controllers or control arms etc) he blames it on the fact that I should have bought an automatic...

Welcome to the mitsu club.

That's a very immature response - especially from someone who has three cars, two of which dont run and one on its way out. I would love to pull that excuse except if it wasn't for my parents there is no way i would be where i was today (coming from someone who has had a job since they were 12 and has had to pay for almost everything he owns). My parents made me work hard but i look back and thank them for it or i would not have what i have today.
