Does anyone know if a 300zx clutch master cylinder would fit the s13? Well, it's actually an s14 pedal, but ive heard theyre interchangeable. I assumed that the 300zx clutch master would just bolt right up since it looks to be exactly the same as the s13 master. But after I looked at it again carefully, it seems a bit short. Like when the clutch pedal is fully up (up as in towards the driver when it's installed), the part of the master that connects to the clutch pedal doesn't reach!! It only reaches about halfway, so the clutch when fully released would be floating in the middle of it's path. It's a bit awkward, cuz when it's out the pedal would be pushed back and forth from one end to the other by the spring and never just stay in the middle. Plus, i looked at my friend's pedal and the master extends all the way to the clutch pedal even when the pedal is fully released, with the clutch button pressed in and everything (the button on the clutch pedal assembly).
So my question is, would I have to buy a real s13 master cylinder? And how much would they approximately be?
Another thing, my pedal is an s14 pedal, which came with some sort of spacer, like a guide for the two studs that would extend about 1/3 past the studs. My car already has that spacer, which i originally thought I had to cut off to make the master cylinder fit, but i just recently found that it's there to keep the pedal leveled. So i cut off the spacer that came with the s14 pedal (which was welded onto the pedal, i had to drill it out) to make it like the s13 pedal (which doesnt have any spacer on it). I just finished doing that when i found that the master cylinder is too short. It could be either that the master cylinder is too short, or that i in fact have to cut off that spacer in my car... I'm leaning towards the master cylinder being the wrong size... could I be wrong? SOMEONE help me please!!
Sorry if this is so long and complicated hahah
