Angry Replacing Clutch~ Average Cost?

I'm thinking about changing the clutch back to the OEM but I'm not really sure how much it will cost.... any ideas?

Also, should I change the fly wheels/pressure plate too when going back to OEM?

Why would you pay money to have the OEM clutch put back in?....

Regardless it should cost you between $500-$800 to have done.

If your going to do the replacement, you should replace the components while it's open.

Is that $500-800 including parts?

I'd figure a new clutch + labor would be more than that.

Clutch, PP, and Throwout will run you about $350 from GoFast. Probably close to $500 if you buy from a dealer. Add considerable amounts for labor. I'd say you'd be closer to $1000-$1200.

I'm wrestling with the whole new clutch issue myself. I'm buying from GoFast and putting it in myself.

i spent a total of $1,300 on new OEM flywheel, pressure plate, clutch, throwout bearing, pilot bearing, installation, alignment. reason why i had so much stuff replaced was because all the components were just GONE, i couldn't press the gas more than half an inch while cruising without having the revs just fly up. installation was approx $550.

honda dealership wanted $1,400 just for installation if i provided the parts, lol

labor gen goes from around $350-up.. the parts are depending on what kind of brand name parts you use...

Personally, i went with HTG's clutch kit. comptech flywheel, ACT PP, oew disc, and throwout bearing. including install, i paid just under 1300. However it doesn't look like HTG is selling the clutch kit anymore....hmmmmm
