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.

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
