Just received the stainless clutch hose and adapter for the NSX. So got around to installing it on my car today.
Quite a nice setup, it came complete with new bolts, OEM seal and obviously the other necessary bit.

So first remove drain the clutch resevoir, but even with that drained you will get some fluid dripping out so be careful and try not to get it on the body work, just keep a cloth handy to wipe down, with the hose removed I put the new seal on and bolted the end that goes into the clutch slave first really simple and and straight forward, only 2 bolts.

On this install I decided to remove the retain bracket that sits on the fire wall as I wanted to see how good a fit the new hose was and make sure the little clasp was nice and tight.

The clasp fitted perfect and as good as OEM.
So, just bolt the bracket back up, install the metal clutch pipe into the female end of the new stainless hose and screw up the female end of the new hose to then adapter on the slave cylinder and thats it!
Just need to bleed the system now and have a test.

Hi All,
Has anyone had any recent contact with Sudesh?
I've tried calling and PM without any return over past couple of months.
Concerned to know he is OK please.
regards, Paul
Hi Paul
i spoke to Sudesh a couple of weeks ago mate, and he was fine then!
He is really flat out at the mo with his work and stuff and he is a hard man to nail down at the mo if honest ... i hope to pin him down to start working on my ABS upgrade but yeah he had said to me he has hardly been on here just due to lack of hrs in the day ... but he is still/should be knocking around. surprised you have not got a callback from him.
if i get speaking to him will be sure to let him know you were asking
regards
andrew
Hi Andrew,
Thanx for this and I spoke with Sudesh earlier today ... he has been a very busy man!
Sudesh, I forget to ask earlier ... do you have the part # for that small blamking plate used for the R steering wheel? It covers the U shape cut out that would normally be covered by the OEM airbag wheel.
Thanx in advance and talk soon about the other project
regards, Paul
NP Paul, glad you got in touch with him ... yeah he has been busy LOL!
im sure he said he has not been on the forum much but i will let him know about ur post re the steering wheel just in case as i should be speaking to him fairly soon again
:)
Paul, I'm not sure there is a Honda part # for what you require, the 'R' has different top & bottom column covers I believe.
Thanx Simon,Quote:

Hopefully I'm right
