Can someone please reccomend a good trustworthy shop to install a HR clutch, flywheel, and upgraded CSC? I had a terrible experience with a shop and they couldn't get it done. Thanks!

 

PM acidjake75 on this forum....he can install your clutch.

 

i asked jake, but he said he didn't want to tackle an 07+ :-(

 

Why not post up that you already had JOTECH attempt this and they failed... Thats why I wont touch this install. Its a fix of some other shops attempt.. No thanks..

 

Yes jake is correct. They failed at the install, so i bought a new clutch and flywheel and had my slave inspected by joe with zspeed. So now i need a good shop that can do this right!

 

six weeks after i bought my car (08HR) the slave cylinder went out, the stealership where i bought it referred me to a place called magic import, its a little hole in the wall in irving run by a couple asian guys. they did all the work mine, with parts was $600. i have had no issues since then, wouldnt hurt to give them a call.
(btw, jake turned me down also if it makes you feel any better)

I did my 08 a couple weeks back infront of my garage. It wasnt as hard as I thought. How can a shop mess that up? lol

 

i have heard of alot of horror stories about JOTECH from stuff like this to bad tunes

 

Usually jakes the man, but i cannot blame him for not wanting to really mess with it. How long did it take you Purerush? Ok ill look into that travlee thanks. Anyone else?!

 

prt performance in lewisville, maybe alamo autosports in arlington

hey how are you liking the gen 3 intakes, i been thinking of those

 

PRT is a very reputable shop.....he should be able to do your clutch.

Jake is wise not to mess with other shops mistakes.

 

I like them a lot, didn't notice a huge difference or anything though.

 

i really like they way they look, but is it hard to get the filters off? right now i have the gen 1 with the boxes and the z1 post maf tubes,

 

Just take the bumper off it takes like 15 min
Sell me your motordyne! haha

 

hell i just got em on a week ago, now that all the oil inside burned off it did get louder and throatier

 

So i called prt and they said $550, i may take it to kevin with evolution dynamics since he works on my good friends evo all the time and does great work. I know its not the same car but he is very knowledgeable and trustworthy.

 

I'm curious how Jotech messed this up? Did they refund you your money for not being able to do the install?

 

No they did not they installed it and within a day it wouldnt go into gear. Tehy tried to blame it on south bend clutched and joes slave cylinder from z speed .They also made me pay to put my stock clutch back in. I don't even want to get started with them. This was almost 2 years ago btw

 

its almost like they put something in wrong, i am looking at the z-speed bearing whenever my clutch wants to crap out on me. i heard the HR's clutches are alot diff than the DE's

 

Yes they are apparently. Joe (zspeed) seems to be very knowledgeable and i wish I wish he was local cause then I know there would be no problems at all with the install.
