Stainless Steel Clutch Hydraulic line Conversion

    I swapped my Auto tranny with the 6spd, during that process I had to install the hydraulics for the clutch, I decided instead of using the factory hardware, I will use a 48 (4 foot) inch stainless steel line -3 instead, the factory hardware is over $100+, the SS lines with its hardware was about ~$50 (bought it locally), plus it was easy to install. I have driven other supras with heavy duty clutches and I have to say the clutch pedal was very heavy, I know the pressure is related to how stiff the pressure plate is, but I think the factory rubber line ballooning effect the efficiency of the hydraulic system (same ideas as the Stainless Steel brake lines)...with the Stainless Steel line the power get pin pointed to the pressure plate instead to other areas (ballooning) . My experience with my setup is the clutch pedal is softer then the other modified clutch I have used, I'm using a stage 3 clutch masters pressure plate (found it cheap!), my next clutch would be the twin disc Exedy!.
 

Here are few photos of my install,

  *On my project I used a 48 inch line, which is more then what I needed, so the 40 inch should be enough.
  
  2) TWO Banjo Fittings , 3 AN, 10mm, 997603, $7.47 each.
  3) TWO Banjo Bolt , 10mm x1.0 Single, 977517, $4.36* each
  (I'm guessing they do come with two washers, looking at the pics)  http://www.amstreetrod.com/html/brakehydraulic.html
  
  *$Hint$: You can also use the screws and washers from when you installed the trd brake lines, you can just reuse the 2 brake screws and the 4 copper washers if they are still good condition, that should save you ~$9....
  
  4) DOT 3 or 4(better) brake fluid.
  5) Brake/clutch line Bleeding tool* (~$5).

*You can make your own Bleeding tool using a clear small bottle and a clear tube line, fill the bottom of the bottle with brake fluid and make sure the clear line is always submerged under the fluid line, that way air wont be sucked back in the system, As you pump the clutch line you will see air in the clear line and at the bottom of the bottle, once the air is gone, you will know your system is bleed enough.

• Make sure to adjust your clutch pedal for maximum efficiency and comfort.
