Just as the title says...wham! Stepped it up to feel some newfound power...found it....then found something else. A HUGE squealing coming from the car when clutch is in, and when it's out, it sounds like something's scraping veeerrrry loudly underneath my car. I can get the car into all gears perfectly, but pushing the clutch in makes a noise loud enough to deafen you, and my clutch pedal is vibrating very badly, pretty much bounces my foot off of it....

Is the problem my throw out bearing? Either way...it was on it's way out, last night just gave it it's wish...

Ordered a new Spec Stage 1 clutch less than 10 mins ago...good idea?

Thanks for any help!

dude that stinks espically since you just got back. Well yea change the clutch if i were you i would do everything at once if able. Clutch, flywheel, TObearing, clutchfork, quad.,and adj, cable. It would make a big difference to do all of it at once.

Thanks man! How much can you see all this running me? And how hard would it be to do it myself? That would save me some $$$ as well...
