Looking for mechanic for clutch replace, Houston, TX
I have an '88 vert, n/a and am looking for someone to do a clutch replacement. Stock, nothing tricky. Can anyone recommend someone? I would like to get this done quickly (even if its a shop that doesn't specialize in RX-7's).
I did do some searching on the forums and PM'd Rx7 NUT 13B about a week ago but have not heard back. So I'm looking for alternate options.
I'm located in Cypress, far-west Houston if location matters. Thanks in advance for the help.

That sounds like a very fair deal, accepted.
Now to show off my noobness; can you acquire the parts for me? If you told me the car needed a new liver I'd have to believe you. I literally know crap about my car. I'm willing to help out and I can pick up the parts, I'd just need you to help me in getting the right parts and all of them that you'll need. Give me a call and we can discuss the best time, date to get the vehicle to you.

I can get all the parts or you can supply.
At a minimum you need:
Clutch Disc
Pressure Plate (I have a new one I can sell)
Throwout Bearing
Pilot Bearing and Seal (I may have this)
May need some new gaskets for the exhaust and hardware (I have this)
You can get a whole cheap kit on ebay for under $100 shipped if you have the time to wait. Do not expect it to take any kind of beating - good for everyday stock hp driving.
You can buy a whole kit from Autozone for about $165 but still have to buy the pilot bearing because they supply the wrong one no matter what they tell you.
If you want to upgrade your clutch, ACT makes great ones but look to pay $400 for a kit.
All depends on what you want and how much you want to spend.
