that is awsome dude. I was wondering if anyone would make one for the max. IF I had 5-speed I buy one up in a second.

stupid question, but the VQ35 6speed trannies use a hydraulic clutch that require a clutch line?
just need a confirmation and i'll paypal you within minutes...

edit: also, is there a need to "bleed" the clutch line, or do you just remove, let it spill out, replace, and fill up with whatever leaked out?

Hey PoLo, you'll have to take a look to see if there is a slave cylinder on your transmission and if it has a fluid line then you're good to go!

derrick, not meaning to jack your thread, but is there a chance you could do a GD on the Technafit SS brake lines, too? I may be interested in the clutch line, but I really want brake lines.

Intersted, I will be sending payment soon!

The clutch will have to re-bleed, correct? Do I need to empty out the clutch master?

Thanks.

from what i understand, it's a b!tch to bleed the slave cylinder, as that is where the fluid leaks out of. my friend said he did his and did it in a simple quick manner. 2 people are needed. one person removes the hose while the 2nd person covers the hose so as to avoid leakage (obviously, some will leak, but it's not a lot at all) put on the new hose and then just refill with brake fluid if it's low. i know that in my FSM, there was a bleeding procedure, i'll try to get it posted up.

mine was shipped out on monday and arrived today, everything looks good on the line. now does nebaody have a write up on installation, i ran a search and the installation seems very simple, its basically swapping a brake line, same steps involved just remember DO NOT GET THE FLUID ON UR PAINT, IT WILL EAT IT UP. the only thing i could not find was the location of the line and considering my car is in the shop i cannot run outside and take a look.

Hey Image, you can still get in for sure. The overall effect is supposed to be a better "feel" for when your clutch engages and disengages, and a firmer more confident clutch pedal feel.

Is this line is for the one between the hard steel line (from master cylinder) to the box thing mounted on the tranny? I want to know this because my line from the box thing to the slave cylinder started to leak, and I need a replacement. Bacically this is my problem.

hey vquick, honestly as much as I would like to, I barely make a dime selling these things. I really just wanted another part out there for the max community, so I can't really knock anything off, sorry! $25 is a pretty damn good price i think!

Just to let you people know, I did this a while back using a steel braided brake line, and the feel of the clutch improved significantly. I highly recommend it.
