Maybe from the dealer...

8.1hrs labor book time

$430.99 for OEM clutch kit

You do not need to replace the flywheel when doing the clutch. It can be resurfaced and around here its $40.

If I was to quote this it would be: $875.99 + Tax.

Its beyond the point. Telling someone not to get a car because the clutch job sucks its like telling someone not to get anything but an electric car cause gas is getting expensive. Let it go!

My point is: have fun spending money and doing a clutch job on a Mazdaspeed6 because I'm glad I got to do the clutch job and see the destruction that the customer did. I know for a fact that I'll never own one.

Speed6's are nice, kind of a grown up Evo. If you can't afford a clutch job, you probably shouldn't be buying one, but with that said, it's a once in a lifetime job if you're not driving like a 15-year old.
