Baddflash Posted April 17, 2005 Report Share Posted April 17, 2005 Was going to order a STB but noticed that it would be directly above or in the clutch MC reservoir. Has anyone with a 5-spd added a front STB and what was done with the reservoir, or was it fine where it was? http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/2/web/386000-386999/386684_143_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/2/web/386000-386999/386684_148_full.jpg Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Rockstar Posted April 17, 2005 Report Share Posted April 17, 2005 With the autos, they clear the Alt without a problem.. So there shouldnt be an issue, unless I missed something in the pics.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slick Posted April 17, 2005 Report Share Posted April 17, 2005 Just remove the STB if you have to work on the car for any reason. I have to, and so does everyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TurboSedan Posted April 17, 2005 Report Share Posted April 17, 2005 i ran into the same problem when i tried to fit a home made STB on my Cutty. i was going to relocate the clutch M/S reservoir to a different spot on the strut tower, and use a longer hose to the M/S. btw, nice looking engine bay! i'm digging the dual 3-point dogbones....

Justin Posted April 17, 2005 Report Share Posted April 17, 2005 I'm running the F-bar and it clears the master cyl, but you have to remove it to check your clutch fluid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euro Posted April 18, 2005 Report Share Posted April 18, 2005 where were you ordering your STB from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Posted April 18, 2005 Report Share Posted April 18, 2005 damn clean engine bay! :shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baddflash Posted April 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2005 Thanks everyone! I'm just gonna get the F-BAR and weld it to the upper strut plates. I guess it's just one more thing in the way when I try and do something, I'm used to that now. This car used to be so easy to work on but it didin't have any options, it's atleast 10x harder to work on now then when I first got it. But it's loaded to the nuts, so it's worth it. Oh yeah, 135k on the original motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
