konradlip Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Hi, I noticed that my clutch slave cylinder on my 280zx tranny (5 speed NA) is leaking so I decided that I want to replace it. I want to ask if anyone has any suggestion or which one should I get and what other parts besides the clutch line do I need. I know MSA sells them for like 30$ but I want to know if they are worth it when all the other companies have them for like 15. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rejracer Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I usually go for one of 2: Napa - for the lifetime warranty. Rock Auto - for the less than 5 buck rebuild kits. You can also get the rebuild kits at any auto parts store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewZed Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Whatever you end up getting, take it apart and clean it out before installing. They can be gritty inside, even new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgsheen Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 The slave cylinder is a very simple mechanism. If you can't rebuild it yourself, get one from a local source. Easier to warranty if you ever have problems. Or, as mentioned above, lifetime warranty - free part from down the block whenever you need one...

mcx Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I just rebuilt one for the first time last week and its very easy..the shop manual shows the parts sequence for reassembly if you get it mixed up but its unlikely as there are such few parts in one....Rockauto had it cheap.
