Dealership was asking $2,400 for the clutch alone

Payments are about to be finished and I'm looking to start tuning my car

Another question, when starting the car after being driven, sometimes the RPM is very low and the car would turn off. This problem doesn't happen in the morning if the car has been idle all night

any input?

thanks.

You aren't that far from Seb @ SpecialtyZ or Fast Intentions. I'd contact them for clutch replacement. I know FI does clutch upgrades with TT packages, I just don't know what else they do.

Your other problem could be air filters, throttle bodies needing cleaned or a problem with the fuel pump. Seems our cars are prone to the 'hat' on the fuel pump breaking off, and since you say you've driven it hard, it's a possibility. Good luck.

On the fuel side I would look at replacing the fuel filter too! Can't hurt and it probably about time to do it. Which reminds me I should do mine.

I'm taking the last post back, just found a post of where the fuel filter is located, in the pump hat in the tank. What a pain in the a$$.
