4cyl or 6?

The 6 cyl isnt cheap the clutch itself is around 450-800 for a standard + another 400-600 for fitting, only hard bit is the throwout fork since its a pull type clutch. If you have never changed a clutch before i reccomend a mechanic to do it. Its a bit fiddly and its fwd

Thanks for the reply, I've changed a rwd clutch before but never on fwd looks a bit tricky and haven't got much in the way of tools anymore, it's a V6 hoping to get it done for under $1000.00:redface:
