Thanks to morgan, here's the link:

Clutch Masters FX500 Clutch Kit - THMotorsports - Discount Performance Car & Truck Parts Sale | Lowest Price | Free Shipping

Oh and asking once more just to be positive, you guys (morgan said he is and a few others) are all referring to the 6 puck, correct? No one has used the 4? Price is the same, but I'll go with 6 if that's what you guys go with. I already am starting to move shit out of the engine bay to drop the trans.

Thanks. Oh man I'm actually glad this happened NOW while the car is 92 percent hibernation mode and not in like 2 months when the salt is all gone. May upgrade the front pads/rear rotors too while I'm at it

Which part of the cable do you lube? I generally am always spraying the adjustment wheel with some kind of lubricant, but I don't go up the cable with anything itself (the wire portion)


you have to go to a bike shop and get a cable lube kit.. Literally night and day difference after I lubed it.

I have this one but not from this site Dirt Bike Motion Pro Cable Luber | MotoSport

And for the lube I used Dirt Bike Cable Lubricant - 6.25oz | MotoSport exactly this too

unhook the cable from the transmission, hold it up and put the piece on it, tighten it down and put a napkin by the clutch pedal lol spray enough till it comes through the cable at the pedal and a little bit more

Interesting, at only $18 bucks it's a worth a shot. I still always carry an extra clutch cable with me in the trunk when I drive the car. Left stranded 4 times in about 3 different cars from them.

You said to place a napkin by clutch pedal, what about removing the cable from the firewall housing? does it have enough power to get the lubricant UP the cable at that point? the silver housing held in by two 12mm bolts, I think that could hinder it making it up the little "incline" to get down to the pedal

FX500 is the best single disc clutch on the market for our cars. I had the 4 puck unsprung on my hydro b15 and loved it...have the 6 puck this go around for the b14 with cable/miko bracket but haven't installed it yet.

You won't be disappointed. You also might as well do the hydro conversion since you are taking the tranny out anyways. Night and day difference.
