  1. If a slave or master isnt working, does that not mean it either has to be leaking past the seal or there has to be air in the system though right?

      It doesn't have to lose fluid to be bad. I had one on my 521 that somehow let air in after I bled it. Had to pump it up to limp it along, changed it, and problem solved.

      I had a master go bad with no leaking as well.

      Also had one in my old 720 that somehow built up too much pressure. Clutch would start to slip, I would crack open the valve, bleed off pressure, top it back off, then back to normal for a couple days. I changed that up to the 84 system, master, and weird added midway bleeder valve, and no more issues

  2. 2 new master cylinders, 3 new slave cylinders. I have never spent this much time on any hydraulic system in my life. they all keep leaking.

      Can you find CENTRIC brand parts there. Never had an issue with CENTRIC. Install them on many customer's cars.

      I have a new lifetime autozone slave. Outta the box if I manipulated pedal just right I can/could get it to bleed down. When I have time I am rebuilding an original so I KNOW it is good.

      the thing is, Coulter is an entertainer not a journalist. She's the equivalent of Andy Dick trying to portray herself as the equal of Bob Woodward. That is to say she's a chimp attempting to pass herself off as a brain-surgeon.

      If you haven't heard if it, you can't afford it.

  12. Maybe if you all actually HAD a racing license (which is required for real track days by NASA and/or SCCA) then I wouldnt have to hear a bunch of internet educated drivers tell me how TERRIBLE Front wheel drive cars are in turns, LMFAO.

      I will make it easy ,,you won't even have to turn right one time.

      NASA or SCCA racing license, its a requirement for going on most tracks for track day. Its not that expensive and you will all learn alot, like you will learn how to get passed by a FF car with its ass end sliding. No but seriously you should all go get it. Its like $5-600 at most, then in addition to going to track days you can actually enter sanctioned race events if you have a car that will pass tech inspection.

       

      Why are you still reading this? GO DO IT!!!!...

      Real racers race around right AND LEFT turns.

  14. FR means that Power+Turning=Drifting (slow, slow = boring), FF means that Power+Turning=Overtaking (fast, fast=fun)

      All your responses prove that you have never tracked a FF car setup for actually driving and not getting groceries.

       

      Congrats, you all bit at me essentially proving you have little track experience and regardless of how much you have...

       

      I have more.

      So theres this thing called LOGIC, try using it.

       

      And if you drove an FF that oversteers, I am sorry, that car was setup WRONG.

       

      My Civic essentially drifts if you turn hard enough, and so does every single track FF I have ever driven, go out and get yourselves some experience instead of believing everything on the interwebz.

       

      And by the way guys, I switched from an EVO to drive FF, thats a step up if you again, actually have EXPERIENCE as a driver.
