Installing a clutch using jack stands is fun as...
After a after a month of waiting around for me to order the parts and a day and a half to install em, my FD is finally rolling again. Its really not as hard as alot of people think.
I did have one problem though... I didn't get the SST for removing the flywheel and couldn't get the bastard off so I could replace my rear main seal. I plan on getting a ACT street strip soon so I didn't worry about it at the time. Just wonderin if I should use a sealant for now until I get the ACT?
Last, my brakes and rotors are damned straight to hell. Anyone know where I can get em real cheap? My FD will be my only transporation in about a week and a couple days so I need to hurry and get the parts so I can fix em.
Damn I had fun doing that clutch on jack stands...
Anyone in MD/VA/DC if you get the parts I'll do the work for about $400-$500, Koons wanted $1476 to do it, dunno why.

I can get Brembo rotors for about 65 each. They're the cross drilled slotted ones. They're genuine brembo rotors, but were not slotted n drilled by brembo. You can usually find a set of these on ebay too

www.tirerack.com has Brembo solid face rotors for our cars for $57 I believe. They also carry EBC and Hawk pads at decent prices.
