So while all you cool kids were having fun at the Texas meet, I was down in Corpus calling AAA for my bf's car ('02 civic Si). His clutch went out on the way home. Looks like I'll be changing it next week sometime at Randolph AFB auto shop if anyone would like to give me a hand. I'll buy pizza and drinks for anyone that shows. I'll post more specific days and times later this week when I get my work schedule but I'm guessing it'll be Tuesday or Wednesday (April 6 or 7th) at 11am til however long it takes or the shop closes.

 

i have never replaced a fwd tranny but i have heard its not too easy but i dont know

 

ive done tranny's on a accord F22 and on a d16...havent done it in awhile like 3 yrs but im sure its not that much diffrent... is this on a EP3?

 

I've changed them on d16s before also. It's an EP3 - not sure how much different it'll be either any help would be awesome tho!

 

Its gonna be a lot different. Just make sure you mark reference marks on the subframe before you remove it. Save yourself the cost of doing an alignment afterward.

 

He has a manual from advanced auto i looked through but since it isnt specific to his car i'm not quite sure about it. will do on the subframe tho! thanks for the tip!

 

I work on those days.... If not id be there giving a hand.....

I work during the day but if you're still working on it in the evening then I can swing on by to help.

 

yeah it all depends on my schedule :/ The autoshop on base is a nightmare to try to get one of the lifts on a weekend which is why I'm trying for sometime during the week. Thanks for the offers tho!

 

I'd like to be there on the 7th, but I might be too busy getting ready for a TDY.
