Hydraulic release bearing
Please bear with me since this may be a stupid question to some. I just received my Mazworx cd009 kit which I’ve opted into going with the Tilton hydraulic release bearing. I don’t see any vids or forums on this topic so wanted some input on it. Could it work with the factory master cylinder or finesse is required. Mazworx didn’t put out instructions on that option so I figured it was “plug n play”. Also, I notice companies aren’t having those options when using a stock transmission why is that. I know a company tried it a while back but discontinued it.

To answer your question .... I dunno. It's gonna depend on how much fluid it takes to release the clutch. For LS applications, the MC must be upgraded. I believe @spitsnaugle has a few of his master cylinder kits still available if you were interested Sent from my ONEPLUS A5010 using Tapatalk |

the cd009 kit is a complete 350z replacement transmission with a favq adapter bell housing to connect to the fa20.
https://www.mazworx.com/mazworx-favq...t-frs/brz.aspx this is the hydraulic release bearing kit by itself: https://www.mazworx.com/mazworx-favq...aring-kit.aspx it's designed specifically for the favq bell housing. i would reach out to them to try to determine if a different master cylinder is needed. if you've got the part number for the tilton release bearing component, could also ask tilton: https://tiltonracing.com/product-cat...ease-bearings/

500$ isn't terrible for those. Wonder what the wholesale price is. Maybe I should put together an FA20 kit. Iirc that other kit was like 800$. I can see why that would be a hard sale

the verus fork, pivot ball, and bearing are $240, so about double the cost for a solution with replacement parts availability that removes all the pivot problems? i'd definitely be game for $500

though i've got no interest in changing master cylinders, so it would need to be able to utilize it, which may kill the whole idea...
