Re: Clutch hydrolic system

I believe the way the FWD slave mounts to the tranny is different. I'm not 100% positive about that, so don't quote me on that.

I am pretty sure you are right b/c I remember that being my problem. Just buy a new AWD slave cylinder to keep thing quick and easy; I highly doubt the small differences in size will make a difference.

Re: Clutch hydrolic system

Turns out you guys were correct!

The only way to use the FWD slave cylinder is to run new metal brake line....which I am not willing to do now.

Here is a picture of the FWD(yellow cap) vs. AWD (blue cap)

Re: Clutch hydrolic system

This may sound like the dumbest question but this is what happened when I put my ACT2600 in, engagement point was close to the ground of the car, but it was an easy fix...

you did adjust the rod connecting the petal to the master cylinder right?..

From what I understand people buy the extended rod so that they don't have to adjust the clutch or it will adjust the clutch for them, however it is easy to adjust it right at the petal.

Anyway I am just starting with the most simplest things first.
This worked for my GSX anyway
I say stay with the stock vr4 system because that system should work. I have never seen anything that said swapping master cylinders and slave cylinders to make clutches work...
