Okay, so I put on a new clutch hose tonight. The old one was fucked BTW. Anyway now I have a wierd clicking noise from the slave cylinder area. I can also feel the click in the pedal. I was thinking maybe shoot some grease where the slave pushes on the fork. Thoughts/ Comments?

It went away. Maybe the system wasn't used to having full travel or something.

the FC is easy. Try changing a clutch slave on a 12A RX-7!

I wouldn't do a clutch slave on my 12a Rx7 slave.I hear they are a real pain.I would need a lot of sleepless nights to do a job like that.
