is this a good clutch hose as I'm doing a gearbox conversion and want to replace the old lines so if anyone can help me out that would be great

Should be fine, HEL are a well known decent brand. It will make bleeding the clutch much easier and replaces all the convoluted oem piping.

Are you keeping the clutch booster and pipework, if so thats ok as its the short hose. If your going single line straight from master cyl to slave that wont be long enough!! You can get the long hose through Zcentre £20

We are doing them together craig, so were discussing this and could decide what to do about the booster and its assosiated lines.

what clutch you going for?? Ive gone single longer line on mine with an RPS Street Max and its fine not to heavy at all, I would get rid of the extra pipework fella

We have a tt clutch pedel with booster and associated vac lines inc wing vac tank. We have a very good stock clutch to go in. Just wanted to know if the hel would be suitable running from master to slave.

 

Btw Steve and I are helping Phil fit his conversion

Ahh gotcha The Hel line is perfect if your keeping the booster its just they supply the short line as standard, if your bypassing the hardline then the zcentre one does the trick nicely I know myself and groover have these fitted with no probs at all

That's the thing we don't want to fit the hard bleed line that runs into the engine bay that is connected to the distribution block, sounds like we have to get the long one from z centre

yeah it does!

 

it literally goes between the Master cylinder down to the slave, you can delete everything else then, If your using a good standard clutch you wont notice the difference anyway, Its only if you go for an uprated one you will feel it! Saying that my RPS doesnt feel any different using a standard one anyway. just delete the booster stuff makes things so much easier.

Thought it was only feeding the vac lines into the car and connecting to a vac feed, didn't think the booster fit ment was a pain? We have all the bits for it and was thinking it would be a shame not to have it working, can you use the original tt pedel box if you don't plum in the booster?

Yeah sorry I should have been clearer I have the box fitted to the back of the pedel which has one line going to the plenum I believe. The hard pipe that runs down the drivers wing in the engine bay with the bleed nipple I have removed and fitted the single long line straight from the master cylinder straight down to the slave cylinder on the gearbox.

Phew I was getting confused there for a bit, I have the master to slave line on my na and was hoping it would be the same on the tt, thanks for clarifying

Yeah sorry fella think i was confusing myself lol, Your bang on, If I can make a silly suggestion while you have the box out though double check the oil seal on the rear of the engine as if you have disturbed it too much it will leak as i found out when I did my conversion and had to pull the box back off to fit a new rear seal. Also make sure the clutch release bearing is changed for a new one, as this can cause some strange noises if worn.

Thanks already planned that into the schedule ;-)
