How much should a clutch install cost?
Im getting my stock clutch replaced by a Clutchmasters stage 3 clutch kit. He keeps telling me that its gonna take a really long time. He wants the car for 2 full days, and I know that time equals money.
Question is, to all those who have had theres replaced. How much did it cost and how long did it take.
Thanks,
Josh

Performance Factory did my clutch and flywheel in one day. I dropped it off the night before and they had it ready the next afternoon.
I paid, I think $1,500 for the clutch and flywheel and install.

So out of that amount, how much do you think was purely install? Im guessing around $200 since clutch kits and flywheels usually are around $650 a piece. And they only had it for one day? Did anyone say that it was more difficult than any other car to replace?
Thanks for the answers,

i called performance nissan in duarte, ca (socal) and they said the clutch would be $1050.00 and if they had to replace the flywheel, that would be another $1100.00. 
I might as well sell my G

I have changed the clutch in my old ford truck and it was not big deal. However the G is something else. You must remove a lot of the exhaust and cross members to get to it. It a PITA. Hence the $$$ and the time.

Wow Texasscout. You just made that seem really hard to do. I believe it should take no longer than a day. I was just asking to get a ball park figure on how much it will cost and how long it will take.
Thanks guys for your help.
