ACT Clutch Installed

Well, I got my new clutch in on Friday. A few friends came over Thurday night to help me get started but a lot of the bolts were frozen So we sprayed penetrating oil on and let it set overnight. Got started around 9:15 the next morning and finished up around 11:15 or so. That's with a lot of downtime due to driving 45 mminutes one way to get the flywheel resurfaced and waiting an hour to get it back. And then waiting 45 minutes for a friend to show up and help me put the tranny back in.

First impresions are very good. Seems to hold much better than the old stock unit. I had 86,500 on the stock clutch and it was making some FUNKY noises. It was also causing "false knock" so I kept pulling the knock sensor code But everthing is all done and it drives like it's brand new! I'll post pics of the install as soon as I get them online.

Thanks to Generic, Rambur, and YDRSBTR for all their help!
