that dosn't really bother me, cause if you were to just take a car to the dealer or like goodyear or something it would be almost a thousand. so i think 500 is a good deal im no complaning

500 is about the average price for a clutch job. paying almost a grand would be rediculous.

are u kidding? Its easy as hell. The hardest part is dropping the tranny. Just remember to use thread locker and torque the pressure plate to specs.

First get the factory Honda manual. Then learn how to do engine work.
