good find

I wonder if that line they sell is full length from the mc to the slave, or if its just a replacement for the ~12" rubber line like this one:

That is a good find! I bet it's just a replacement for the stock rubber end-piece that's only like a foot long, though. I'll send them an e-mail....

Ya, that is a replacement for the rubber, i just got mine today...
very high quality. they also make custom sizes...so i'm guessing if one of you get the measurements for the whole line (from mc to slave) they can fabricate one within minutes...

I am curious about the fittings on the clutch slave and clutch m/c. Are you positive that they are the same as the fittings on the brakes? I am guessing that they are 10mmx1.25 can anyone confirm this?

the fitting at the clutch master cylinder is a 12mmx1.0 and the one at the slave cylinder is a 10mmx1.0
After measuring with a string line, i had a hydraulic shop fab up a 7ft long flex line with the specified fittings. The fittings are hard to come by, and they did not have ones that swivel so i will have to attach the line to the slave before i affix the slave to the tranny.
The auto to 5sp swap is underway, ill let you guys know how it feels when its done.

12mm sounds right, but it's damn near impossible to find a 12mm to -3 brake fitting adapter. i still need to go to the earl's store like i told hawkze i would lol

also, 10mm is the correct size for the slave as i've been told

I think this thread should have all the info on fitting sizes and such--https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1689666

To sum it up, you need a 7ft line (-3 AN is good) with a 10mm brake fitting on one end and a 12mm brake fitting on the other.

I am about to take my parts to a hydraulic shop here pretty soon and I'll have some results after that.

I wanted the 45 for the end near the firewall cause it is a tight fit. There is a post here that shows it. Its in the other thread linked

Yea, look at the pics in the link above.

The length I took from there also. You could double check it if you like. My car isn't here or I would
