Got my new clutch yesterday. An ACT 6 puck. Its so awesome looking. Just finished taking the trans out, got the clutch off, cleaned the flywheel. Took the old throwout bearing off, cleaned the trans shaft, greased it up. Put the new bearing on. Took the clutch on the align tool, put it on the flywheel. Hmmmm...... Its looks a little small. Well, maybe its suppose to be. Put the pressure plate on. G-damn it!!! ****!! ****!! WRONG ******* CLUTCH!!!!!



So I took a breather and drank. Called up horsepowerfreaks and bitched them out. "Oh, I'm sorry. Let me call my warehouse and see what the problem is.............Okay, it seems that our website database has the wrong details and the part number for that clutch is actually for a non-turbo. I will send the correct one next day, which will probally be Monday"



**** YOU!!!!



There, now I feel better.

"It's nice being on a forum where everyone acctually "works" on their own cars" **** i hate people who spend thousands more than they should just to get little **** done like getting a clutch put in, or **** even installing a drive shaft (buddy of mine spend 900$ to get his drive shaft installed... i told him we could done the work our selves and saved him a bunch of $$$... good luck dude

What is horrible though, they made me pay for the other one, then thy will pay me back when they recieve this one. UPS is emailing me a shipping thingy, what ever it is to send the clutch back. But man, this really pisses me off. I always thought this company to be a pretty good one.



Now, I gotta go put my 92K mile clutch back in and burn it even more. Then next week, take the car back apart and put in the new clutch. DAMN IT!! At least I get to work on a car, its been a while .

I know it's hard. You did all that work to find out they sent the wrong part . They messed up, and they are fixing it. Things happen.



Could be worse, they could send you the wrong part and then charge almost 1/2 your money to to fix it...*cough*----> sportcarmotion
