Ok, so tonight I finaly got my new adjustable fpr installed, installed my new boost controller, and adjusted my timing(been meaning to for a while). I adjust the fuel pressure to 36psi static, car seems to run good - so me and my friend take it for a test drive(the first time EVER, that we didn't take 2 cars just in case after new mods). I drove a while, stopped a couple times to get my boost set back to 10psi... All was good. Then I stopped at a gas station a few miles from my house, and after buying some snacks, drinks, etc... got in the car to leave, but went to put it in reverse and it just ground, and wouldn't go. My slave has been going out for a while, and leaking - but all I could think of is "why now??" It was 20 degrees outside! Long story short - I drove home with no clutch at all (would stall at a stop with clutch in). What timing... lol Now, my QUESTION, The slave cylinder for the ca18det bellhousing is just the same as one for a ka24de correct? I would like a definite yes or no on this before I buy a new one. Thanks! Cars gotta love them

It's exactly the same. I'm running an S13 KA clutch slave on my car as we speak.

On a side note - Does someone make a complete braided stainless line to replace the whole steel hardline, and rubber hose on the factory setup?

Those werent quite what I was looking for, but I did find an agency power full replacement line(straight from master to slave, 52"). This is what I was looking for http://www.agency-power.com/ca...d/171

So I got my new stuff all ordered and on the way. None the less, thanks for pointing me in the right direction Nico rules

http://phase2motorsports.store....htmlSame price, same item, and you could have supported one of our advertisers.

I am all for supporting our sponsors, and I was going to buy it from them. I added it in the cart, and proceeded to check out... But I couldnt buy from them due to their shipping policies. The problem was that they only ship fedex/ups (requires physical address) to the credit card billing address, and I can't recieve packages from ups/fedex at my billing address... If they offered usps mail as a shipping option I could have purchased it from them - but they didn't, so I couldn't.

Besides, I didn't compare part numbers until you pointed this out - But I honestly didn't notice it was the same. All I saw was the hose with a banjo on one end, and a female connection on the other side - hence I didn't think it was the right one - maybe they need to use the other picture instead so picture shoppers like me can figure things out quicker

So yeah - nothing against them - thats just how it worked out.
