New clutch installed [Throwout Bearing Exploded (pics added!)]

[Twista]

Okay, so i been waiting like 3 weeks for a new freaking flywheel. Ordered it last friday and got it yesterday, but :rant: ******* made in china piece of shit was drilled wrong and wouldnt fit on the crank thingie. BUYING CHEAP= BAD MISTAKE!


Now for all the people who knew about my car problem and how bad it sounded. Guess what:

Dfg_pimping was correct...

My throwout bearing EXPLODED!!! and was in 3 pieces. Ill take pictures later for you guys. Now my stock flywheel and clutch was perfect LOL.. i mean perfect for some reason. No burn or glare marks so we just re-used the stock flywheel. My clutch had maybe 40 thousand more miles left on it which is surmising. i guess im a good driver after all, but downshifting into 1st blew up my damn throwout bearing.. it was stuck pretty hard on the clutch fork. The bearing from the T/O spilled all over the floor (every single one of them) when the tranny was removed.


Well, all is well now.
To refresh your memory.. the sound of a blown up throwout bearing: http://www.sn95forums.com/forum/index.php?topic=16709.0

You know when you have a flywheel turned, or in your case sanded... you're supposed to cut it in a circular motion?

I didnt do the sanding and yep he did it in a circular motion if thats what you mean. i guess your looking @ the marks on the flywheel pictured above. It actually drives fine for some reason knowing it was only sanded down. (not the smartest, but the car has been down for way to long uke: )
