Clutch install time - mpg9999 - 01-18-2005

Im assuming most of you guys are in harrisonburg, but anyone in NOVA want to help me install a clutch Tongue. Not sure when I will do it. Im tempted to wait until it gets alot warmer so I can ride the bike while the car is down. That would allow me time to lay down a few welds on the tranny and tranny related parts. I've ordered an ACT HDSS and 9 quarts of MT90 (gotta have extra!) so far. Still need to order the axle seals, TOB, release clips, clutch cable, and reinforced clutch cable bracket.

If you don't have a warm garage you should wait until it's warm - otherwise go ahead. Why do you need a new clutch cable and axle seals (are the old ones destroyed?) Also this might help

Wow, you have an se-r? I actually already have that saved, and its also now on the sr20forum.

Im not going to do it when its in the 20's like it is now, at least not outside. If I really need to get it done, I'll just use the garage at Fort Belvoir instead of my driveway. Ill probably wait until I get a day that gets into the 40's.

New clutch cable and axle seals because they already have 160,000 miles on them, and if im going to be in there anyways, why not.

Sorry, I don't own an SE-R. Unless the clutch cable is really stretched I wouldn't worry about it (it shouldn't be hard to replace with or without the tranny in the car.) The axle seals are a tough call, sometimes they leak and sometimes they are fine - mine looked great at 130,000 miles.

I dont think I'd be much help, never worked on an SE-R... I am great project supervisor [drinking beers, handing tools, etc]..

oh yah .RJ - I always met up with you to give you non-busted parts for your busted hype-R Smile
