wow, that's really scary. that's why sometimes i just want to let the experts do it. not worth putting my own life at risk. But i am definately going to buy a jack and stands and start doing slight mods or changes in my own time. it's just for now i want it fixed asap. i'm hoping this fixes my shift feel. if not, i'm still going to have to go and get my gearbox sorted :( hope my clutch and gearbox isn't ruined. that'll be another 4-5gs there. this car has cost me over 40gs after buying it and just fixing things on it. i should've had a hot s2 by now :'(

Soooooooo!!! Guys! i just picked up my car from Essendon Honda and paid 500 all up with labour and parts that i sourced from america. The car is still Freeking squeeky with the clutch and now they tell me my clutch is on its way. im seriously sick of spending soo much money on this thing and not getting any where!! i just feel like driving into a POLE! My Transmission is still shit to flick between gears. the threading is stuffed so i dont know how im going to flush the oil. the clutch master and slave made no difference at all except that my clutch is light and the friction point is really high up now. i dont know what to do. 500 dollars gone for nothing already. im thinking of a Exeddy Hyper CLutch but friend reccomended that i just go heavy duty and not hyper cos thats more for race. please help me :'(
