$$$ For Clutch in Atlanta

[2-Saw]

I just called Ed Voles Accura on Peachtree Industrial. They quoted me $2,800 for a new clutch . Has anyone got a guy that can do better than this? I mean if I pay 2,800.00 for a clutch, I want to be taught how to do it, so I can do it myself the next time. Yes, I am mechanically inclined.
Thanks,
Dean

clutch should be about a 1000 and 1000 for the install depending on the year.
If your dealer charges $89 an hour labor rate, 10 hours should get it done.

1 - You do not specify if this is for a five-speed transmission or a six-speed transmission......makes a difference. Mine on the former was $1900.

2 - If you are that mechanically inclined, then do the job yourself and save some money. :smile:

isnt the 5 speed cheaper?

If you pay me $2800, I will take your offer and show you how to do it! :biggrin: :biggrin: You will also get Free Clutch installed with the above price.

Check with Dan at battleground engineering. Not sure how much it costs but he is very efficient and gets good prices on parts.

Thanks Guys,

Im doing a little saving now, but it is hard to do this time of year. Girlfriend is putting the screws to me about getting her a ring, and does'nt know about the car :biggrin: Oh.. it is a 91 5 speed.

$2,800 for a factory clutch sounds pricey. I paid $1,900 for an RPS clutch and $800 for the install (Hendrick Acura in Charlotte). Mine is a 97, so maybe there's a difference in installation price

Anytime I have a major repair like that I take my car to Barn Man in Nashville. But, if you're not willing to travel check with Acura Carland in Gwinnett. I have heard good things about them. I have not had good experiences with Ed Voyles.

if you want some "unsolicited advice"...any girlfriend putting the screws in for a ring...I see RED FLAGS...IMHO...FWITW

Honestly, that is why i have not pulled the trigger yet. She does not know what I have( not that much) but Im sorta shallow, and she is fine, but will probably brake me in the long run. Believe it or not, Im into looks

I just moved from Atlanta... I had a new clutch put in my last NSX about 2 years ago. I ended up going with Honda Tech in Duluth (they used to work at Ed Voyles before they opened their own shop). They charged me $1600. I ended up going to them for everything over the last two years. They were great... I miss having a shop that I can rely on. If you want their number it's 678-475-1395. I hope this helps...

Surfer I called your guy today after i got out of Nally Acura. I going to see him when I get back in town.
VBNSX I would set you up for a couple of days in Atlanta, if you would teach me and give me a list of tools, compressor, etc.... I need. Probably wont happen, but thanks you are inclined to take the job on more than me. 404-234-8091
Coldhammer, killer to meet you, and i did call Dan,..... but you know that.

Thanks everyone for quick response.
