ok so my slave cylinder moved and it is not in the proper position now. When i press the clutch i get nothing and therefore i cannot shift into gear. What would cause this ? and is it okay if i try and push it back into its position? im confused

SR20DET 7psi everything stock except 3" exhaust.

Yes i think is very important to change it when u are running aftermarket clutch or higher boost..and is not that expensive

iirc you can change the pivot ball through the hole that the arm goes through...pita but you shouldn't have to take the transmission off.

Would you prefer to buy the Gucci version instead?

Looks like homie lost interest in fixing his problem, or maybe it just spontaneously resolved itself.

alright, so i know this is an old thread but i have the same exact problem im sure. no clutch pressure. the plunger from the slave cylinder poped of the the side of the arm that comes out of the transmission. so you do not have to remove the transmission to change out the pivot ball?
