After having had the better part of a week with it, these two small mods account for a huge driver's reward. The clutch responds the way I recall others I've owned over the years (the last clutch was in a 1991 5.0 Mustang convertible that I bought in 1993, and sold my 1992 Integra to get haha! wife was puzzled by that move).

So @1flySi and I met up today and ended up taking his delay valve out. It was sooo much better! So easy to snatch gears now. Mine will be done in the next few days.

How many bottles of fluid do you think it would take to flush the old fluid out?

@1flySi and I did his FB6 and mine on one big bottle from the autoparts store.

I bought the one from P2R, it seems really good.
I especially like that they coated the stainless with a layer of thick rubber, I'm guessing to keep the elements out.

^^^IIRC that rubber coated one only relaces the short line from driver-side fender bracket over to the transmission bracket. You still have the line from trans to slave cyl. The PRL replaces everything from the fender to the slave cyl. It's a great stainless steel straight shot.

Just did this today. I never had any problems powershifting at all, i was hoping it would make the clutch a little more stiff. I dont feel that its that much more stiff but good diy.

I have a SS line coming tomorrow and I will probably order some Hybrid Racing bushings before I remove the CDV so I can do it all at once.

Was time for my 12000 km oil change and I decided to do this mod at the same time... wow. No more gear grinding at all. The tech that helped me bleed the clutch said he could tell immediately that it felt different from other Si's. The car is better for it and my driving experience has improved for sure. Before the mod I was changing gears faster than the clutch would engage and was experiencing grinding in 2nd and 3rd - glad I performed the mod as early as I did...thinkin' I may change the MTF now after all that grindin'

I got rid of mine today with the help of @Flippercon and his tools , and after driving it for a little while I can already tell that it is so much nicer. It probably is the best free mod you can do.
Also, protip: do not try to put everything back together in the dark. lol.

No problem buddy, If I wasn't messing with my suspension you could of been done a whole lot faster. I am going to try to arrange a 757 9th cruise so we can get some sick rollers and pics. I will let you know about it.

You just need a decent camera with a good amount of megapixels.
