:'(

They dont have any in stock at the actual stores so i would have to wait for it to ship and i have no idea when itll get to store. And the ones online arent the same ones the store has in there computers.

Right now im actually just going to buy anything to get my car back on the road. Having no car is really making me a crazy person lol :rant: :comando:

i might just do that. They say the estimated shipping day to my house is Wednesday if i order online from advanced auto. I just want the best possible clutch out of the two:

its either

you know you could have avoided the shipping cost by having it shipped to your local store?

Sadly, well i didnt want to take 2 buses to the local store to pick it up. My neighbor is the mechanic so getting it shipped and just pushing the car over one house to his garage is worth it. Just alittle too much out my pocket and i could still get a king cobra clutch kit on sunday for $85 but i dont think i can wait that long. Plus i dont race the car anyway, so a cheap clutch should be fine.. long as i dont make the same mistake as before.

Most friends stab you in the back. You dont seem like a stabber though. :) I have a few and than i have my girlfriend. All of them depend on there parents car which sucks Closest friend of mine is my girlfriend which doesnt have a car. The rest of them are just friends or associates.
