370Z Clutch Line Upgrade - Experiences?

Zat_Zuma

It's a great improvement to install a stainless steel clutch line and higher rated brake fluid. Use a Dot 4 minimum and better quality like Motul or ATE is preferred.

Don't forget to insulate the line well to prevent heat soak from the exhaust. It doesn't hurt to add more insulation for extra protection.

What would one use to insulate the clutch line from over heating?? Besides adding different fluid i mean.

It already has some wrap on it stock. Just take off the stock stuff and re-wrap it around the new stainless line. You don't have to go overkill on it.

The Motul is RBF600.

I had a spongy clutch pedal and the Z1 stainless steel line along with the higher temp DOT4 fluid fixed it. I can't recommend it enough.

Personally, I installed the line while I had my cats off. I couldn't imagine trying to get in there to unclamp and unscrew the stock hose with those things in the way. Pain in the ***.
