Last weekend I got bored and put a new clutch in my car... then just got ambitious and I've been working on it all week since then.

- installed an ACT 6 puck metallic plate clutch disc with no springs
- unorthodox underdrive pulley
- redid all vacuum lines with silicon hoses
- all the grounds in the engine bay with 4 gauge wire, and added a few more
- main battery and starter cables
- adjusted the valve lash
- valve cover gasket kit
- cleaned up the engine bay a little... removed useless brackets, hid some wires and etc...
- new timing belt and alt. belt

I think that's about it until tonight.

 

wow your quite the mechanic...i wish i could do some of that stuff,i bet if i tried and had assistance i could..but im just afrade of going to screw somthing up, like the clutch and belts, nice going tho

 

Thanks... Most of it's really not that hard, just a little common sense and the ambition to do it. This was my first front wheel drive trans. that i've dropped. It definitely a lot easier than everyone told me. But for the most part, if you don't know what your doing have a book handy and maybe someone that knows what they're doing to check it over before you put it together. I won't take my car to the shop anymore, when I first got it I had the head done... and when I got it home I pulled the valve cover off to check the timing, and the cam gears were completely out of time...
