Im wanting to remove that clutch dampener or whatever it is juat wanting to know what some of you guys have done to do it.

I was thinking of getting a hose made up like the slave has and hooking it in between the slave and master. Any negatives if i use a hose to connect theminstead of a hardline?

Ive seen some people take the path of pending the hardline but im not really wanting to do that.

Thoights?

Is there any need for the damper thing to be there? The piece of shit f**ked up last time I tried to bleed and since I will be changing my master soon, it would be awesome to eliminate the thing. Could I just run a new hard line to a female-female fitting then some braided line to my slave?

That link is talking about bending this, moving this etc. Those hard lines are a pita and break easily.

Ended ip doing it on the weekend , couldnt be bothered going to get a custom line so just bent line. There suprisingle easy to bend and flexible. Got it slldone and bled and no worries feels so much better now

The hardline from the master, bent it to meet the bracket of the hose was easy and not brittle at all. Worst case if you break can always get another one from the wreckers.

yeah was just saying, because its possible to put a small crack in it. And while yes it is easy to get one from a wrecker, its hard to get your car home when you cant engage your clutch

Just trying to help, not saying it wouldnt work :)

Yeah i know. Some people have had theres crack just depends on your luckcondition of line. I wouldnt be trying it if have to rely on car but for me track car so wasnt big deal if it didnt work it.

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo
