Clutch fixin time...
 

Well, yesterday I was in 3rd gear turning a corner and I went to accelerate and it simply revved, so I slapped it into 4th and it did the same thing. I then somehow got it to engage and it has been driving fine since. However, I got that stinky burning smell which I would assume is part of the clutch. I knew the previous owner had torn it up..just knew it.

This is my daily, currently at 60k. I am going to replace the flywheel, pressure plate, clutch, and add the CSC delete kit all while I have it torn apart. Can anyone help me find good products? I have no clue what to be looking for as this is my first time working on a manual. It isn't a race horse and I don't plan for it to be, so something that works for daily driving and not a super beefy sport clutch would do me just fine. All opinions and advice welcome. Thanks!

I am going with this kit right now.

My guess is this kit is exactly what Joe recommends to the OP :tup:

I just replaced my clutch. My slave cylinder was the problem. I was really bummed because it had 141,000 miles on it and I wanted to get to 200,000. (I have gotten 200,000 before.) There was almost 1/8" of clutch disk left on each side but there was a 1/2" separation in the boot of the slave cylinder. I put in a JWT clutch and pressure plate. I also put in the heavy duty slave cylinder instead of the replacement kit because I wasn't sure the mechanic could make the right adjustments. I also installed a light weight fly wheel. All in all I am fairly happy with the install. Something I noticed is there is a drone if I under-rev the engine. It also makes noises when idling.
