just making sure before I take this master cyl. out that the newer hydraulics have the same restriction as the older ones.

Yes, all braided lines regardless of year need the drill mod. They all have that stupid restriction in them.

actually with my 02 ss i never noticed any of the clutch sticking problems while racing that people have described which lead to doing the drill mod.

Maybe you are just more lucky than others.

well, never had that happen with dads 2002 TA either, thats kinda why I wondered. but his car didnt have much power before this springs. so we'll see with his cause Im not taking his apart till it has a problem. but as for the car I originally asked for is an 01, im goin to do that mod anyways now while I have his car and the trans is out getting rebuilt anyways. Ive done the drill mod before ,so I know what the restricter looks like. I'll let ya'll know if it looks diff. then the older lines do.

I've got an '02 with the stock set-up.

I'm very satisfied considering it's lasted through cam only.. then twin turbos at the track and abused on the street.

Now the turbos are off.. and if I stretch 3~4th gear the pedal will stay bottomed out. The clutch isn't slipping, it's just the pedal...

I guess I need to search for the write up.

Honestly, when it's time to swap clutches, I'm gonna put in another Zo6 unit.

Half the issues I read about center around the clutch fluid I bet its beat up and boiled. Swap it out, wrap the line, thats half the issue.

yes, the issue arises a lot because most of us have longtube headers, which can heat up the braided line a lot easier than the stock manifolds since they are muich larger and get close to the line.

Thanks bro..

p.s- 'grats on the mod thing... they'll never make me a mod, I'm much too controversial.

Thanks, I get that way too from time to time.

just did the drill mod today on the 01ss and yep it has the restricter too. it does look diff then the LT1 line I did before. the oring in the installuniversity writeup is different. thats how the LT1 oring looked. the 01 hyd. line 0ring looks to be built into the mastercylinder. the hardest part of the whole drill mod is getting the F'n master cyl. bolted back to the firewall. takes two people.
