Heavy Duty Clutch Master Cylinder
Where can I get one. New HD plate is tough and is going to blow out the seals I fear on the stock Clutch Cylinder. Anyone know of a place that sells HD cylinders?
|
Try using the FD unit or cylinder. I've heard of a few people doing that.
|
FD cylinder that much stronger?
|
Not really sure u could try searching for the thread, I dont really remember it that much. In my car I have a ACT 6puck with their HD pressure plate. It did kill my original master cylinder pretty quickly. I called Chris at rx7.com and he told me a ss clutch hose would help and being easier on the clutch. Mainly in traffic, my car being a daily driver.
|
Hmmm I have a SS clutch hose so maybe it will last. Not gonna hold my breath though, hehehe, i like to have a backup plan at the ready.
|
No such thing...
Use a stock rubber hose - this keeps the cylinders from failing from heavy PP's. -Ted |
Damn Ted thats not what I wanted to hear. Not worth a doodoo. :(
|
dont use the stock rubber hose.
I have a wilwood master clutch cylender..it's still in the box, so i cant comment on how well it does or doesn't work yet. It's a common "upgrade" w/v8 fc's. |
FD and FC master cylinders use the same seals, so I don't think throwing an FD cylinder in there would help. For what it's worth I've put 20k miles on my master cylinder pushing an ACT HD PP and the S/S disc and have no problems so far.

The ACT HD pp with street disk blew out my seals on my master cylinder within two weeks. I ordered a new master cylinder and slave from Nopionline.com and haven't had a problem with them in about a year daily driven. I think they are made by Tokico and where about 60 for the set.
|
Yeah i was gonna say ever since I replaced mine (113k miles on original), I put in the ss clutch hose and have had no problems.

Well guess I'll just wait and see. If it blows I'll check into that wilwood. Had thoughts of the selling the engine anyway and going with a V8. Dunno though.
|
What! Dont sell that motor, that thing is awsome. If u put a v-8 in that car I will drive down there and slap u for it. I love that vid of ur car. Please dont do that.
|
LOL Just a thought I've had. Your right the engine is bad ass. Have a guy here with a 94 GT though he just put on a T66 and is laying down 540hp 589tq at 10psi. Man thats some power. I'll smoke him on a course but he'll smoke me on the straight.
|
ted, because you can use the Willwood MC, it wont blow out. The braided line being stiffer, will give slightly better pedal feel.
|
Does "better pedal feel" give you "better performance"?
-Ted |
no it doesn't, however i like my car to feel as solid as possible.
btw-the wilwood's stroke is shorter, and bore is larger. Meaning you have less clutch travel, making faster shifting possible. |
Where can a person buy a wilwood clutch cyclinder?
|
|
hmm, that's not the one i have, mine has the stock mc's footprint, and has a remote res.
my friend bought it from granny's speed shop. he never put it in, and needed some coin, so i bought it from him. |

They had more choices, I just linked the closest thing.

Gotta say it....The stock rubber line acts as a spring in the system, it still pushes just as hard with stock or ss lines-----the ss is just faster.
I however, felt my master going out on the stock one and have put on the ss line and am looking for a better MC too. It shifts faster...but I still can't hold it in for more than 5 sec.(what she said-haha.) |
