Wuts the cost from RX7.com? Are they still selling it direct? I checked their site, and it said that the RP Braided Stainless Steel Clutch Hose (93-95) was $38.00. That's from this page: http://www.rx7.com/cgi-local/3catalog.cgi?cat=2&part=5. Can you get a link for me? I'm not sure exactly which one it is. And yeah, can u checkup on that clutch/tranny recall info. It would be very bad if we spent $50-70 on this and have it recalled and changed for free. Thanks in advance!

I didn't even tell the guy on the phone I was in Houston, and he just said it's $67 shipped. Maybe they got another large shipment in of hoses?

I don't think it's the right one... I need a link to the real one, or I'll just call Alamo maybe.

That is for an RX7, it's much smaller and no center fitting. RX7.COM does not sell or advertise the EVO clutch line for retail.
Alamo does have a site http://www.alamoautosports.com but they do not have any EVO VIII parts listed yet.

Yeah, I wasn't talking to you.
I was speaking in general, just happened to be after your post. I had to remove a bunch of OT stuff.

Just got mine installed at my Mits dealer.

The clunking is gone , but i have about 3 inches of play in the clutch pedal now???? WTF?

It engages about an inch from the floor, and when I let it out the pedal feels like it catches up then releases?

The service guy said he bleed it really good, dose this sound like there is air in the system or somthing?

Is everyones clutch with this line installed engage about an inch from the floor?

Help please. I only had the line done.
