It's still the weekend for me, Damn i love holidays :D

So i decided to do something about my over heating clutch slave cylinder, after a good thrashing she's a bit hard to get into gear!

As you can see there's not much room left after the exhaust went in.
Image

So whipped up some new bits, including a new fancy pants braided hose to replace the 2 brake lines joined together that were my clutch line :roll: Image

Installed all the new bits, a lot more room around the slave now. May add a heat shield later aswell.
Image

Topped up with nice green fluid and she's all go again :D Image

Its a H/D Hydrolic Fluid. Supercheap sell them with the Yellow cap (black bottle).

I also got the same colour fluid when I got some for my Audi (from a place in New Plymouth) but that was a specific Euro hydrolic fluid.
