Or maybe one of you guys have one extra sitting around. I need the hard line that goes from the clutch master to the hose that then goes to the slave.

Just go to a junk yard. Every one I have ever gone to had ATLEAST 1 FB in there. It seems like there a ton of wrecked or non running FB's these days and very few good condition ones.

Damn, why do they make it such a pain in the *** to get those damn fittings off. I got the one that connects the line to the master, but the one that goes to the hose is impossible to get off. So I am going to need new fittings too....I've no luck when it comes to these things.

hah..oki, I got the master out with no problem at all. My replace was the VB master cylinder. Isn't an exact fit, which sucks. The studs are longer and don't alow for the nuts to tighten down all the way so I had to put some washers in there to space them out. I guess Monday I will go down to Mazda and see if they have the part.

As far as junkyards go, I will call around. But everytime I do that, nobody has and RX-7 in their pile.
