I'm in the market for a new clucth for my basically stock GTS, and I've pretty nuch narrowed it down to the exedy OEM replacement. Only thing is there is no dealer locally thats listed on the exedy website.

So my question is: does anyone know a website that I can order this clutch from?

I know you can get them on ebay, but I don't know if the warranty would still be valid. I don't want to have the clutch put in, then have something go wrong then have to pay again to have the clutch taken out and a new one installed.
So basically I'm looking for somewhere I can order the clucth from that will still value the warranty if something does go wrong.

I'd prefer something in Canada, but if you know some other websites, I'm willing to try those out too.

Alright,
A mechanic said that I should do just because if it happens to need replacing down the road, it will cost close to the amount of replacing the clutch, so I should just do it now to avoid the hassle later on.
I found a place that will do it for 480, plus 80 to resurface the flywheel.

Is that a reasonable price, or should I keep looking around?

Thats quite the reasonable price, cheap enough that I would question it =P - Lowest I found in my area, excluding going to the shady tree mechanics, was 800 without plate, or slave.

There shouldn't be a need to change the slave if it is working correctly. Nor would cost anywhere near the cost of getting a clutch done as its fairly easy to get to.

Doing it yourself you wouldn't drain the system at all, most you would need to do is, re attach to the casing, line up the arm, and bleed the line if need be. Real easy to get to, just have someone push down on your clutch pedal while looking at the transmission. The module that pushes the arm on the trannie is the slave, and you'll notice a bleeder valve on it too. Real easy to replace.
