After driving a friend's Integra I realized that my clutch was way hard to push in. It is the stock clutch but it feels a lot like an aftermarket. I inspected the pdeal assembly last night and it works fine so this leads me to believe that it is either the master cylinder, slave cylinder or the actual pressure plate iteself, which I choose to believe it isn't

Has anyone ever heard or seen a bad master cylinder or slave cylinder cause a hard pedal?

 

I have an aftermarket clutch...and to my disbelief it was SOFTER than stock.

If any of your cylinders are bad, they will cause your clutch to become softer, not harder.

You should be glad you have a hard clutch.

 

i have a 97 gsr and my pedal was hard to push in too and i loved it. then my throwout bearing went out so i replaced the clutch with a new type r clutch and now i have a soft clutch and hate it.

 

I agree with previous post, bad master / slave cylinder makes it softer. Probably in the PP.

 

I pretty much knew that, I just needed to here it. I guess I will run it to failure and replace it when I need to be.

Thanks for the replys.
