So it seems I have a classic case of pedal "pump up" on my car, the problem was described in this topic [http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/dri...ft-3-4-5-after-prolonged-highway-driving.html] and after going 250 more km, it's now worse. And I isolated that the clutch pump-up while rolling really helped.
I want to fix the problem and after some research I'm still not sure how to do it once and correctly at the same time.
What I'm thinking is:
New master cylinder (OEM)
New slave cylinder (OEM)
Some weird ?valve? thingy delete (useless valve or something on 2G, as mechanic says?)
Preferably SS clutch line (aftermarket) (EXTREME PSI : Your #1 Source for In Stock Performance Parts)
But I'm not really sure about that weird valve. What is it for, is it safe to delete, any downsides, why is it there in the first place?
Also, I don't know if I need only SS line, or is there anything else to look out for?
And as far as I remember, there was also a problem that the pedal stopped working if there was no free-play at the top of it. It gradually got worse and worse until it stopped disengaging at all. So I don't know if the longer free-play was a fix for the problem or just a fix for the symptom. And I want to fix that problem as well if I can if I do the whole system replacement.
So is my parts list correct? Should I do the delete of that valve thing? Is there anything else I should read about?
