I might do what this guy did and leave it there. ::edit:: finally finished and cleaned up, except for my dirty fingernails driving impression= clutch feels the same, not impressed as for driving feel... go beat the shit out of your car on the track and you will not have any fatigue fromt the 30 year old rubber line swelling... there is a reason why most high powered miata's with heavy ass clutches change to stainless lines... it's not for the glam of it... lol... also... you now don't have to worry about a 15 year old clutch line failing on you in the middle of the track, freeway, on a date with the hot girl or whatevs...

did you think it was gonna be amazing? lol there are 2 soft lines, you might* feel a difference with both, i'll let you know, but it makes things easier to take on and off, and looks prettier lol
but you will feel more from the brake lines than anything else... again same principle... 15 year old rubber lines will swell and fatigue quickly when you are hard on your brakes... you will have much more stable braking etc etc etc....

That is basically all it does...oh and a little cosmetic dress up. Clutch line is not a high pressure line. |

The Clutch Line replaces the rubber flex hose and the Steel "Curly Q" Line. It eliminates the need for the factory mounting brackets, that interfere with transmission and starter removal.

I expected the clutch to disengage and break my foot off from the force created in the new line. Now I'm debating installing the brake lines.

Has anyone done the brake lines yet? I'm getting a leak from the horizontal hard line at the distro block for the rear lines. At this point it's over-tightened.
Any suggestions? |

Not stripped, it was tightened normally but was leaking so I tightened it some more. I've already removed the fitting and re-tightened twice.
In any case, I have a car that's unfit to drive. I need a replacement distribution block ASAP. |
If you expected to feel a difference with the new clutch line and now are having problems out of the brake lines you should have left the installation to a professional like you said you were going to in the first place...
|
I hope the threads are the right pitch on the dist. block. I was going to do the install today, but didn't get around to it.

also when installing the distribution block, don't bolt the block to the subframe first, attach the hard lines to the block then bolt the block to the subframe... as for a replacement distribution block... crxican pm me.... (and i hope you all realized that i was kidding about using teflon tape and or teflon tube... lol...) |
Um... teflon tape.. yeah.... that. Can you imagine? Speedy death.

the parts are proper, but proper installation is key... again please be sure to attache the hard lines to the block, then bolt the block to the subframe... AGAIN THIS IS THE REASON WHY WE RECOMMENDED PROFESSIONAL INSTALLTION IF YOU HAVE NEVER DONE IT BEFORE OR IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING... YOU DON'T WANT TO FUCK WITH YOUR BRAKES!!! |
