First off I have a 90 Talon TSI AWD manual. I bought it from HID Tuning and have replaced numerous parts including engine. I am going to need a new clutch/ possible transmission rebuild. I am going to either purchase an ACT 2600 or ACT 2900 clutch kit. Right now my ACT 2100 (if that is truly what I have) grinds way too much and might be my transmission. I know I am going to finish off my 2100 clutch this summer an would rather have these issues addressed, so I don't end up possibly stranded or ruining my trans if it is good. Looking for someone who would have references and would be willing to install a new clutch kit and possibly rebuild the transmission. I do have the cash saved up and looking for some help. Please contact me and let me know.

Pretty simple procedure, I could do it in a day or even a weekend as I've done enough of them. I have all the tools, a lift and the space.

I could also get you the parts at cost. (Clutch and synchro's)

Let me know, I can deal depending on when you need it done.

Thanks Andy and yes I am going to have it painted hopefully next month. I decided to take another route on the interior since there are some cracks. I used plastic epoxy to fix my interior and now I am wraping it with black fleace. I am going for a blue and black interior. That grey with the nice worn look wasn't too appealing. Jake, that would be awesome. You might be scared because how my car looks, but hey, it is a dsm and I am trying hard as hell to bring this thing back to life. Isn't that what owning a dsm is about?

I have been reading tech articles about my car more that my BIBLE since I have purchased this car! Hopefully that will change.
