Brake fluid leaking.. need help.. Pic inside

Where can i buy the replacment of this part?? It's leaking brake fluid from this hose and clutch doesn't have alot of pressure .
I really haven't check it yet but is this line coming out from the master cyl? This line / hose is below the map sensor
Do I have to replace the entire master cyl?

Thanks

Call Ray @ Malloy Mazda for OEM, or you can buy a stainless steel clutch hose from Rotary Performance for $38.

Easy to replace. Use a "flare" wrench if you can, and don't forget you'll need to bleed it (clutch line).

BTW: are you 100% sure it's leaking from the hose ?

I thought my master or slave cyl is going out.
I told my brother to pump clutch pedal and I saw bubbles coming out from that hose and that hose is covered with brake fluid.

Thank you all for the help.

Looks original and most likely is getting ready to split or bust which will leave you without any clutch if not replaced right away.

Its comon for the clutch lines to start leaking.

Got to remember most of your FDs are now 14 years old (most sold in 1992) & thats a lot of times the line has gone from pressure-to-no-pressure & back again & again & again.

Get a braided steel line version from some where like RX-7store.com as they are worth every cent & fit any 92-02 model. Makes the clutch feel a whole better too
