ours have 2 pipes coming off the master cylinder which run off in to a maze of pipes. what i need to no is which pipe on ours can i blank and which one to use direct to the slave cylinder,

'Loading up the tranny'. What's that?

That thought did come to mind, but I didn't want to declare anything that might be seen as coming from experience

shock.. dropping the clutch for launching, there is a very slight delay with the standered setup. your only talking split second but if you change gear 4 times on a strip then removing this delay setup should make times a fraction better, plus its ment to give you a more consistent pedal. plus i can do away with the mile of piping to run the slave...

I was just wondering where the wonderful Americanism came from.
In drag speak, 'loading up the tranny' is what you do with a high stall converter on an automatic box when the car is staged.

so you just wanted to take the **** out of my english yes.. wel done you cracked it. surpose you would load up any tranny (gearbox) before launch, (biteing point)
back to the qs in hand lol. 2004 blob sti, should of put it in firstly, sorry.

Nothing to do with your English, or grammar. As said it's an Americanism, and you were talking about a mod popular in America. Simples!
You can't 'load up' a manual box. The biting point is the clutch, not the gearbox (tranny).

uk setup, i want to do away with all the pipes ect but i need to now which pipe on the master to block off and which one to use direct to the slave..
also is a 04 sti slave the same as a classic...

4u2nv2

oh i see, just a figger of speech buddy to be honest, the reading of the naiso (america forums) for the last few hours has rubbed off lol. not much of this in the uk...

Unless you're Antron Brown you'll probably find you have far more to gain by improving your launch and driving technique in general than faffing around trying to save a few 100ths of a second on gear changes.

4u2nv2

well when your at 10 seconds them few 100ths count.
if you cant help me mate with what im asking stop posting please, dont want nor need you pennies worth.
im not asking for help regarding english or how to launch or in fact driving technique.
i want to knock off a few 100ths thankyou..

Suit yourself.
I thought I was being helpful.
I had no idea you were so proficient.
But then again I haven't run in the 9s for at least 20 years so I've obviously lost my touch

Have a look on opposed forces.

4u2nv2

thats great buddy, dident no about opposed forces. really handy thanks.
altho its a better pic of the layout, it doesent help regarding which one to use.

johned

Maybe it would be best to put a uk master and slave on the car.

Sell it and buy something quicker, farting about with a master cylinder to try and make up for poor launching technique and lack of power is a waste of time.

An Arial atom would do it hope I've spelt that ryt lol!

You could invest in some semi slick footwear ��

can anyone help with the question in hand..

4u2nv2

its a uk setup i have same as diagrams. think ill just put the classic setup on just need to now if the slave cylinders bolt and locate in the same way..

johned

My apologies i meant the classic set up.

quklux

the same when car wash crew load You fat-***

Do we need this?????.(above).

The delay valve is in the slave cylinder.

cookstar

iTrader: (6)

Classic and 6 speed ones are slightly different, but bolt up in the same way/place.,

To remove delay valve, you'll need to remove cylinder, undo large bolt/cap remove valve and spring then replace cap.

4u2nv2

we dont have the cap on uk models, we have the setup above, no cap. we have 2 pipes coming out of our master cylinder. classic and newage 6sp slaves are the same, classic dont have all the crap on it like the newage (same as america) and also the classic has banjo fitment and newage has brake line male nut fitment.
i wonder if both the pipes coming out of the master cylinder have equal pressure and wouldent matter which one i use, be nice to rig up a dial to see if the pressures are different... im just going to try it both ways using the classic slave..
thanks for the positive input

johned

Good luck.
