Don't go through the entire process of replacing a clutch, then skimp out on a $30 doller flywheel resurface!! I did the first time and it seemed ok....but when I did my clutch the second time, and resurfaced it, day and night difference, firm shifts, and chirp in second

Go for the Steeda firewall adjustable quadrant. The aftermarket cables tend to be cheap, I snapped 3 of them. WIth their firewall adjuster, you can adjust the clutch under the hood at the firewall instead of jacking up the car and removing the trans cable cover, makes things real easy, plus, you can save $$$ and use your stock cable.

Grc.com also sells them, That is where I got mine. Don't do a clutch with a stock quadrant.
