Didn't you just do your S50? That sucks. Really not that hard, even on the ground, it's a 6 hour job max.

Good luck man.

i wont have the time, but you can look at my writeup when i swapped out my flywheel.

if you get stuck, i might be able to drive up and help you for an hour, maybe 2, but lately im doing 13+ hour days and all my projects are in need too.

He forgot to mention its an S50 with ZF320 tranny and its a stage 2 clutch+lightweight flywheel... Dont know if its a different swapping proccess then stock m20+getrag

A clutch job is a clutch job.

A helpful tip, lower the front subframe and use some wobbly extensions for the top trans bolts. That will save you a lot of time.

^ this. Use lots of wobbles

Thanks man, i did put S50, when i bought the engine i didnt know if it works or not... so i didnt want to change clutch without knowing if engine is good.

I see. Well, that's no fun. Good luck man. If I were closer, I'd just run over and knock it out real quick.

When do you plan on doing the job?

I'd also volunteer to come over and make dumb-ass comments/drink beer while you do your clutch. Your call, ha.

I'm down for this if you have the extra space. :D I've done plenty of clutches over the years but never an e30.

How's about this....

I have a bunch of airline tickets to use before the end of the year. I get more next year, so these need to go away. If anyone feels like helping this guy out, but is far away... I can hand out a pair of passes on any Alaska/Horizon Air flight. Since I've never done a clutch job either, that's my way of helping out... haha.

I haven't had to use these passes as I travel as an employee... but I think you may still have to pay the taxes. Dunno, though. Also, the tickets would be space-available. So if the plane is full, you don't get on. However, this can be worked around as I can check the flight loads in advance.

(for a second i thought its a scam hahha who gives free stuff these days haha)

i started, took exhaust off, and disconnected drive-shaft... but now the hard part... "how to reach to the top bolts" ... will see if cant do much then will probably drop the sub-frame...
