Clutch Kit
My clutch has gone out on my 8 and the shop wants to charge over $700 for a new kit. I know I can get a better price online or pretty much anywhere, but I don't know anything about clutch kits and am afraid I will buy the wrong one. I found an EXEDY kit on Amazon and was thinking of grabbing that for about $350 and having the shop put it in. I'd do it myself but I don't have the proper equipment at all.
Anyone have any advice at all on what I should be looking at, or can put me in the right direction? I could also take this opportunity to have them replace the flywheel as well.
Thanks for any help.

Screw Amazon, Support the forum vendors. Either BHR or Mazmart will be able to sell you the clutch you need. BHR\Spec flywheel is also extremely nice.
They have both served me extremely well and have a great customer service.

Can they ship in the next day or two? This is my daily driver, so I really can't wait very long.

You should contact them and ask but... since you never did it before as per the above quotes i'd seriously consider bringing it to a mechanic. It's a 3 hours job if you take your time and have access to a lift. It may become a nightmare for a first timer with no mechanical skills and an aversion to workshop manuals.
