Re: Clutch Install Discounts

[thugline]

Hey Mike, I went to your shop earlier today to tell Eddie that I will get my Act clutch and flywheel somewhere else for much cheaper and just have you guys do the labor. From what I remember the Labor on the clutch install on an 03 evo was $450 to $500 (which is not bad) and I ask him if the price on labor would still be $500 and he said $600(which really shock me). I am short for cash and that was the last thing I needed to hear. I will be buying one of your stealth t kits early next year so I will still bring buisness to you because I know RRE is the shit. I apologize for any missunderstandings and I will personally tell you that myself if it makes any difference.

[gofaster87]

You guys do understand that RRE has many employees and a huge overhead. They are business that needs to pay employess that in turn need to feed themselves and families. Knowledge is worth money and no one else can match their knowledge and expertise. If you ever catch Mike on one of his history lessons youll be glad to know the expereience behind himself, robert(rrs) and some of the others there. Saving a buck isnt worth it sometimes. If RRE were to go out of business, you guys dont know how much the evo and dsm community would be fucked. Ill always give them my business because theyre always there when I need help, have a question or Im in an emergency situation. Cant say this for most shops in the country.

i'm not into +1 so i'll add my bit here.

i think the amount of OMG THANK YOU RRE FOR HAULING MY TRACK WRECK HOME threads that i've read in two years outnumbers that of any other shop and possibly all the other shops "known to evos" combined.

i don't think i've ever even read such a story about buschur racing, certainly not shivnu, definitely not "doesn't" works, no one has the saving grace stories that rre has.

i'll be the first to admit that i'm a cheap mofo. 80 percent of the parts on my car are used. i do most of my installs myself, but when it comes to the big shat, i get it from rre and they take care of me.

DAM my clutch alone is more than that. props for offering a smoking deal for a brotha in trouble. plus one million on what gofaster87 said. I have learned so much about my car at RRE. I also like the fact that Robert keeps reminders on his desk for people who want to push their car over the limit with his collection of bent rods and cracked pistons.

[gen4k20a2]

does this include a new throwout bearing?

Just left Ty a pm about the Po-Boy special :D


From what i understand, you have to physically go to RRE, stare Robert straight in the eye and ask him for the "Po-Boy" special without laughing. Oh, this must also be videotaped and thrown on Youtube. :2funny:

[gsrIXevo]

Thugline Po Boy.... its not a sandwhich.....lol... but it is a combo deal....LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL... just ask Thugline....

[GSX2EVO]

I called in yesterday and made my appointment for the PoBoy package. See ya Monday!

[x[corwyn]]

I'm coming out in a few weeks to get the "Krayzie Bone Gold Toof Ball'r Deluxe package".

How long does it usually take to get it done?

[atlvalet]

If you're real lucky, Robert will throw in a PBJ sandwich with your Po-Boy Special :D

[GSX2EVO]

I just had the poboy thugline package and to say the least I'm very pleased. The guys also installed a stage 1 set up on my car and it feels great! The guys did an excellent job as always and they even tried to help fix my girlfriend's mini cooper s that was having issues with the fuel pump. Robert and the RRE crew really came through tonight. Thanks guys.

If you're real lucky, Robert will throw in a PBJ sandwich with your Po-Boy Special :D

hahahahaha, got mine krazie bone clutch in last week on Wednesday and when i picked it up i stalled a couple of times also......my wife was following me and she was cracking up laughing....ha ha.........but yeah.....big difference eh?Â* O0

But after driving 50-60 miles my clutch pedal got stuck and i couldnt get into gear....i pulled over to look what was the problem and i just pulled it up by hand and it went back to normal for another 50-60 miles. The next day (thurs) i contacted RRE and brought the car back to get diagnosed. They thought there might be a air pocket in the the clutch line so they blead the line again. After they finished i rolled to the 626 meet.

The next day, it happened again on my way back from work. Clutch pedal started to slowly go to the floor but this time i just pulled it up w/ my foot and kept driving. I brought in the car again friday after work and we thought it might be the clutch pedal adjustment. So Robert Garcia tried to adjust it but since hes a lefty it was difficult for him to get to the adjustment point. No one else was there that day except mike, so i just left and decided to come back on monday.

Well it happened 2 more times over the weekend, and then 3 more this week. I realized its not gonna go away. Since I will be at the redline event this sunday I needed it to be resolved asap. So back to RRE again last nite and they finally found the problem. It was the SS clutch line. At the end of the nut, inside was a small nick cause it to leak and overtime causing the pedal to loose pressure and go to the floor.

Now I am a happy camper! So far no problems! Thanks again to RRE and the entire crew! You guys are the best! Sorry for the long post. Just wanted to share my experience w/ RRE and prove that they are top notch!Â* O0 O0

[JCRUZ]

Very big difference. Like night and day difference. Good write up. Now I know what the problem is if my clutch started doing that.got home that night and drove around for an hour just to get used to the pedal feel. Great clutch, great service, overall great experience. Krayze bone gold toof baller for life duhg.

[vial8or]

=( my clutch is slipping to death!!!!
need to get a new one ASAP.
i have the RRE stealth exhaust and am very familiar with their great work so they will be the 1st i go to for my clutch
im real tight on money so i hope these offers are still valid?
im getting the Thugline Po-boy clutch special. dont care if its on youtube as long as i get the discount =)

[Mike W]

The offer still stands :-)

Mik W

[vial8or]

Thank you RRE soo much!!!
called on monday, and by tuesday the whole thing was installed
i only stalled twice! haha
very happy
ill post a thread tomorrow about it when i get more driving time

[r0me0ne]

^^^^^new clutch alreadty...didn't u just by ur gg less than a month ago...or was it already messed up...

[vial8or]

^^lol ya i bought it less than a month ago
but when i got it the car had a 5th gear grind and the clutch wasnt that great
i wanted the RRE one eventually anyways, so i just launched it a few times for fun

[r0me0ne]

^^^that's good how's it feel compared to stock im thinking bout getting it for my gg soon too...

[vial8or]

^^like everyone says you'll more than likely stall at least once
but you get used to it pretty fast. at 1st it feels real heavy, you can feel it in your foot
but it also feels so much stronger. its great since i plan on going to the tracks soon
overall its extremely worth it

[vial8or]

ok i've had almost 700miles on my new krazie bone clutch, so i'm pretty sure i can safely say it's broken in

i'm soo used to it all ready, i dont notice that it feels heavy anymore.
my only complaint is that when in 1st gear, there is this whining sound.
doesn't happen in any other gear but 1st
also, reverse is kind of a bitch to put in sometimes

but other than that it's solid, real solid.
the few people who've driven it real quick love it.

2 quick questions. what could the whining sound be from??
and what could you guys do about my 5th gear grind.
warranty wont cover it, even though it's had the grind since i got the car :(

[tanK]

Yes

[vial8or]

^^lmao!!!
exactly
besides, 1375 for a 3200lb clutch and flywheel and labor??
thats a pretty good deal anyways

[xxxAce21xxx]

ok so my clutch is pretty much gone i wanna get a new one installed by RRE heard nothing but good things i want it done by u guys but ya anyways im a total newb so bare with me here I Have A IX MR 10K on it !!! im willing to spend some good money on a new clutch i wanna know what u reccomend for me only power mod i have right now is my invidia catback which isnt much im looking for a clutch that can take hard driving and that will last unlike the stock MR clutch =( i daily drive my evo so its mostly street i wanna be able to track it one day also so basically i need something that wont give me problems with the low power im pushing but also need something with plenty of room for future mods i plan to power mod the hell out of it and dont wanna end up having to buy another clutch later so anyways id like ur guys input on this and PM me your prices =)

[AaronI1]

thanks for the clutch and stealth install last week.Â* Im loving my car once again.Â* O0 for RRE

[funks]

Was looking at your site, do you guys actually sell 3 types of no-name clutches for the EVO?

RRE No Name 2900 Heavy Duty Kit W/Street Disc - 500$
RRE No Name 3200lb W/Street Disc - 540$

but then when clicking on the more info link - http://www.roadraceengineering.com/evo/nonameclutch.htm, I get this



We have an EVO clutch now for you that is 3,000 lbs clamp load, looks stock (no paint) and has a smooth engaging heavy duty organic disc. We use this same clutch in our 500 hp shop EVO. The price is in line with all of the other single disc clutches or cheaper. It includes a throw out bearing too. Call it what you want... No Name Clutch, X-Clutch, Stealth Clutch.


It says, 520$..

So do you guys actually sell a 2900LB no name clutch (500$), a 3000LB no name clutch (520$), and a 3200 lb no name cluch? (540$)?

[Mike W]

Old page. Just the 2900 for $500 and the 3200 for $540 now.

[HardRideCafe]

Got the Krazy Bone a week ago and I'm loving it, great price. I'm not used to hard clutches so I stalled when got to the bottom of their drive way. I also hit afternoon traffic so I had alot of practice on the way home. But you get use to it. Thanks RRE great service will be coming back for more installs.

[240sxmonster]

Got the krazy bone today an it feels 100 times better. Thank You RRE, you are turly the best. Excellent service and knowledge!! O0

[gen4k20a2]

Cars in for clutch job right now... the work order actually says the crazy names on it!!

[soontobe]

think i gotta buy a new clutch :(

[gen4k20a2]

RRE is the way to go. The clutch pressure feels stock to me... just the last 1 inch is where it feels like it clamps down.

[dj_subculture]

Just shy of 25000 miles and my stock clutch is starting to slip.
I'll be calling you guys in tomorrow morning to make an appointment for the "Thugline Po-boy clutch special". O0

[Mike W]

Cool deal. We can usually get a clutch job scheduled in within a couple days.

Mike W

[dj_subculture]

And yes, I asked to the "Thugline Po-boy clutch special" by name. :2funny:

[friski_nardin]

hey everyone,
so what is the diff between 2900, 3000, 3200 ? im looking for a DD clutch and also take it to a track and do 1/4 mile runs (( launching it )) so please tell me which one would be the best clutch for me and how does the pedal feels compare to stock ? and also what kind of Fly wheels should I got with ? if if none of these clutches would work for me then what any other clutches RRE offers around this price range that I can go with ? by the way im not plan on reaching 450WHP, (( I prefer buy to buy and get it installed by RRE )) thank you all for reading.

[EvoVIIIGSR]

Thanks everyone @ RRE for a kickass job on the Krayzie Bones install. Good prices, great service! Loving the new holding power.

[Mike W]

There are only two clutches for the 8/9. The ACT 3200 (XTSS) and the ACT 2900 (HDSS). Since the 8/9s are most all well out of warranty we dont do the no name plain wrap clutches for them anymore. No Name clutches are just for the Xs now.

THe 2900 will hold the power you are after as long as you dont launch. If you will be a launching fool, get things hot, generally drive like a teenager, then get the 3200. The down side is a stiff pedal and a big left calf.

If you make over ~450 ft lbs on a regular basis, then get a street disc with a solid hub center.

what do you recommend for a 2.3 :wink:
2900 clutch for a Road race set up ??? no drag, i leave that up to other folks :2funny:

[silverevo05]

Hey Mike, Any resolution to the high RPM lock out issues,Â* or is it just a problem with other installers. I'm curious since I am now in need of a new clucth. I'm Gonna need a " Thugline Install" http://www.uglymales.com/wc/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/flavor-flav.jpg

[Mike W]

How high RPM is high for you? Below 8k we dont see any serious issues if adjusted properly. It is a limiting factor of the AC and all clutches based on the stock pressure plate. Spend 3 times as much on a fancy twin disc and that helps shifting at 8K plus, but lognevity isnt any better.

Mike W

[NativeSS]

bump for RRE, and my RRE built (forged internal) motor and 3200lb ACT. empty pockets with a big ass grin on my face. :)

they will even install the oil dipstick springs for you! seen it personally on my buddies car lmao. thats why this is the only shop that gets my money.

Hi Mike,
Do you think this clutch will hold my power or should I just go with a 6 puck.
(514whp 455wtq Dynojet)
I use to do alot of drag racing but not anymore, just want something for DD.

[Mike W]

X-Treme pressure plate with a Street disc with a solid hub will hold that.

One has been holding this for 2 years so far.

just got the thugline special done last thursday. got there right when they opened and they were done by late afternoon. awesome work and couldn't be happier.

[4g63IX]

Got my car back last week, from a new HDSS kit install (last one took a crap). Took it in and got it back, the next day!
Great service, fast work and awesome prices!
That, and I love the feel, of the new Redline MT-85! Feels smoother, than the Redline MT-90 that I had before. Thanks RRE!

[MinusPrevious]

My E85 Nine - 407WHP/402TQ stock clutch is giving up the ghost.Â* Started slipping in 5th at WOT.Â* (Just hit 40K miles)

Just made my appointment for the HDSS install.Â*
I was all about the XTSS spec but after talking w/ Mr. Robert, he told me to repeat the following 3XÂ* "I Am Not A Launcher" ,"I Am Not A Launcher","I Am Not A Launcher" :knuppel2:

Anyways, I'm cured, I went w/ the 2900lb'er.Â* Ill let you guys know what I think after the install

Peace,Â* Joe

EDIT: The 2900lbr is in Boyz. Just one full day to install. Drove it home & didnt stall it once ;)
Pedal pressure & engagement is a bit different than stock

[initial_j]

Thanks to RRE!

Just had the "Thugline Po-boy clutch" installed, feels great, not too different from stock!

Special thanks to Honda and Sam for taking the time to bs and impart some great mechanical wisdom!!

[RoGuEtUrKeY]

I plan on getting my clutch, fywheel, 3 port and tune done by them sometime in the beginning of March. I cannot wait. Been waiting for 7 months to buy parts and get a tune. Heard nothing but good things about RRE! Hopefully I get a good price on all of it.

[evoxchick]

I'm waiting on my tax return and then I'm getting my clutch and flywheel! and MAYBE i can sweet talk my bf into paying for part of my tune.....i think that can be done.

does the install include new TOB?

[Mike W]

Yes, it is included.

It would be criminal not to include a new release bearing with any clutch install on any car from any mechanic.

Much thanks to Mike and Sam at RRE for fitting me in prior to this weekend. Got my Thugline Po-boy clutch kit and IC piping kit installed as well. Dropped my car on Thursday night and picked it up Friday evening. Evo runs great so far, clutch is biting much better than stock, and I can feel much better response from my car with the IC piping installed. If you need a clutch job done fast and easy, RRE is the place to be! O0

Hey mike which hood certified clutchwould you recommen for an evo x with full bolt ons on e85.Also I would like to be able to launch my car without having to always worry about my clutch and have you had any issues with the cmc breaking using your clutch kits. Thanks

[Mike W]

EVO X clutch master cylinders break on stock clutches. It all depends on how well your particular master cylinder got super glued together. It is is poorly glued together it can break with a stock clutch. If it is half glued together well then it can break apart with a mild pressure upgrade. If it is glued together well then it will survive a thuggish pressure plate.

You will always need to worry about launching an EVO. To launch an X with your power level you need to upgrade the center diff cross pin for a start. Then get a miserable grabby metallic disc and a heavy pressure plate and upgrade the mater cylinder. Then with each launch, set aside about $50 towards future repairs.

does the clutch install price vary? or is it a flat 590? for the evo x

[Mike W]

You mean like if you wash my car? Yeah we could work out something :-)

But a la carte it is that what is listed on the first page here. But as you buy all the stuff here we work a package discount as listed there. If you bring in your own multi-plate clutch that needs a bunch of assembly, a pedal stop and change out the release bearing system to a hydraulic push then it could be more.

Let's say a spec 3+ clutch

Are the prices on page 1 still good or can you update them? I'm looking at the Competition Clutch Stage 2 package deal with clutch line. The stock clutch is starting to slip after just 98K miles.

[Mike W]

Prices listed there will always be honored regardless of how old they are.

May not need it if your car is covered by the Safety Recall announced today. Worth looking into in any case. See the sticky in the General forum.

Are prices posted still valid? I called today and you guys stated that the prices went slightly up into the 1600 range?
