I am getting a LuK put in my 1998 eclipse non turbo tommorow. It comes with a flywheel so thats cool. Cottman Transmission is putting it in for $600 even though it was supposed to be more but manager guarenteed me it wouldn't be more than $600 not knowing the kit came with a flywheel lol. Hope it works good because I just need a good clutch for my non modded car to make it run good thats all!

we have modular clutchs in our cars, thats why they come with a fly wheel. I want a better clutch soon. Whats good? I've never studied clutch's for our cars.

Anything that works is fine with me. I don't plan on modding this car.

I just got a LuK clutch put into my car today. It is pretty easy to push the pedal in, is that normal? What can I do to make sure it is working fine. Also sometimes when you are letting the clutch pedal out it feels kinda like its crunchy which it did this before I got it installed too. Not really crunchy but a little you know lol. Are clutches on this car self adjusting? Maybe after a little driving it will feel better.

according to the parts rep. it's normal for the pedal to feel soft becuse its a modular clutch.

Oh ok then Nothing bad with it being that way I just have to get used to it. It will get a little bit stiffer as it breaks in though I was told by many people. I just don't like on these cars how the pedal has to be pushed almost all the way to get in gear and released all the way to catch decently. Adjusting anymore the tranny shop said that it would cause the clutch to slip which you don't want either.

Thanks,
Jared
