I've already changed my oil, transmission, and coolant. Differential was flushed about 25k ago so my car's in good form.

Regardless, I've no experience working on brakes and would like to see it done. That and replacing the 4 gerbils in the S must be a kodac moment.

at the tech day??

i'm not sure about that... BUT, i would gladly help be a wrench puller and 3rd/4th hand if we can work out a weekend. i've never done a clutch and would jump at the opportunity to learn/participate.


btw -- how long would a clutch take? i'm thinking it probably isn't a quick job..... iirc, they dropped my engine when they did my clutch.

10+ hours e-z. I may setup a day when I do this. It is looking like September. I am going to get my garage in order first.

Then I am going to buy a nice air compressor and impact wrench set along with all the tools needed. I called a Honda dealership. $702 plus tax for just labor.

Brian, ok by me then. sometime in September (w/ moderate advance notice), and you've got yourself a class C+ helper and class A- engineer.

this is all part of my larger agenda to take over the world.
step 147? learn how to change a clutch on the S2000.

I chickened out and sent it to the dealer for the clutch. iispms did it. I know how to find him if he is not luring here.

Just got word on the shocks. Should be here by Aug 6. How does that look for a tech day?
