How hard was the install? I've never changed out a slave cylinder before. Do you foresee any implications this could create in the future?

Driving it in this morning with stop & go I can see where some might not like the slightly heavier pedal but it's no worse than my brother's 911. Just feels more raw and sporty. Looking forward to @Andrew025's feedback. As far as the installation? I'm removing it again this weekend to cut off the banjo fitting guide. I'll take photos and do a writeup but fear not, if you can adjust your clutch pedal throw, this will be easy for you. Just don't be a slob and don't crumple your fender.

Look forward to the writeup! Sounds like you're happy with the setup so far. I'm surprised this thread isn't getting more attention, we can't be the only ones O.o

My guess is a lot of folks are lurking with some scepticism. No, I am quite certain we are in good company.

It just feels normal. It took no practice or getting used to because I no longer have to think about it and compensate. 1/16" difference in the diameter doesn't seem like much until you consider the mechanical advantage of the hydraulic system is a ratio of the cross sectional area of the cylinders. Since area changes with respect to the square of the radius, a little goes a long way.

I'm guessing some suit drove it and whined about it being too stiff.

Man this is exciting. I've hated this clutch since day one and after 23k miles I still hate it/can't drive it. Feels like a broken toilet handle, there is no feedback.

Did it only make the pedal heavier or did it create a distinct point of engagement out of an otherwise vague process? I'm skeptical but also fully prepared to buy a slave cylinder and machine off the banjo retainer just to try this.

@Phantobe found this one. The picture on his shows a groove at the same angle as the OEM. http://www.autozone.com/drivetrain/c...er/383444_0_0/

Killer. That's exactly what I'm after.

edit: If the line doesn't fit with your slave then I don't see why you couldn't just route it like this -3 AN line from @Chase Bays. If he's still on the forum, maybe he can comment on the effect of reducing the line size (which should in effect be the same as shrinking the slave size, barring any potential existence of a delay valve). edit again: Quote:
Now I wonder what might be different in the part you bought versus the original part from Subaru. Yours might be lacking a delay valve (if it exists) where the OEM parts have them. Just a thought. Last edited by 37; 11-19-2014 at 04:20 PM. Reason: misspelled Forester |
