Okay first of all I know I'm pushing my luck here, but tomorow after I get out of college I'm installing my Fidanza flywheel and clutch. It's going to be a little rushed and I hope to have it all broken in by Saturday for what may be the last drag races of the season. I have a few questions before I dive headlong into it tommorow:

Lock-tite on the flywheel bolts yes or no?
torque rating ??lbs on the flywheel bolts and... tight on everything else?
suprises I should watch out for?
Any advice to give a guy that's never done it on a FWD car before working with someone who "helped" on one, one time?

I'm about to search around a bit and see if I can't find the online manual for our cars but, I figured I'd post here see if I can get any heads up on the hard parts. Also in case my search isn't successful can anyone post the link to the online manual? Thanks guys I apreciate it!!!

fourth gen forum there's a link to the manual. it's a ishy one but it works. has all torque ratings. go to this thread. I detail this whole procedure while we have a bit of discussion on the best way to do it.

Installing new parts....

as for lock-tite. i have no idea! but i seriously thing there shoulda been some on mine cause something feels wrong. keep in touch if you need any help.

well, end of day one. I got all the tranny sensors and other misc. crap disconnected went to work on the driver's side axle and... well I found out what a pickle fork is, and why the fact that I don't have it is bad. Hopefully I can get the tranny out tommorow and be putting it back in on Friday. School and work are really limiting my working hours.
