AND... if you're really bad4ss you'll replace the OEM flywheel bolts and pressure plate bolts w/ARPs. The 5.sl0w c0yote flywheel bolts w/ARP chamfered washers and RB26 PP bolts.

Not for sure why the majority on here treat a clutch fluid change like its rocket science....just follow the OEM service manual instructions. I had it dun w/a helper in under 25'.

I'm not replacing the clutch. I'm mostly stock, and I've been perfectly happy with the stock clutch... for now. Definitely not bada$$ enough for ARP at this time.

on the clutch restrictor... I found one at my local AutoZone

For whatever reason, the first time my wife helped me with the clutch fluid, it took us nearly 1L of fluid and 20+ min just to bleed. Second time it was done in a few min (<30 min for the whole job jack stands and all). I don't know what the deal was. Same procedure both times ... just following the FSM.
