It's not exactally Chicago, but it's close enuf. Liberty Auto City in Libertyville....off of route 176. They have one of the top rated Mazda mechanics in the country working there. I had my engine replaced over there under warranty and Steve did a very impressive job. He's very methodical about his work.

Wow, 1800 ?

Tell that dude to go *F* himself

a Brand new, OEM clutch from Exedy cost me about 175 Shipped, its the whole kit, PP, Clutch, Alignment tool, throwout bearing, and a small pack of grease.

Then get a new lightweight Flywheel with Counterweight, A good Lightweight FW like ACT Prolite Cost like 250~ dollars, Counterweight is like 90-100 bux, with the bolts like another 10 bux. and some misc items, for like maybe another 20-30 bux.

then it cost about 400 bux or so to install it at a good place.
