Having said that, I honestly have no idea how a dead master would give you a light pedal and still work the clutch properly without filling your left shoe with brake fluid. What dictates pedal force is the PP's clamping load, the pivot location, and the master/slave ratio. The latter 2 haven't changed. I think you might have broken the pressure plate's spring pivot, or maybe even thrown some bolts off of it(!!!). I hope it's not the bolts.

If you've got reputable people telling you its the master, I'd love to be wrong about this one!

Why don't these things have decent inspection holes???

.... but i'm sure your more reputable sources have already told you all of that...

Well I go to school full time and work. A master is $50 and super easy to change so why not try that. If not, who cares, at least I have a new master in there.

If thats not the problem, I will have to result to dropping the tranny but I am trying to avoid that is all I am saying unless its what I have to do.

I did not insult anyone, if I wouldn't take your opinions into consideration, I wouldnt post. Simple as that. There is no point to take it personally, but I would rather try the smaller steps I can inbetween classes rather than finding time to drop the tranny and so on.

Yeah, because its not like you could have someone push the clutch pedal, while measuring the slave throw, to determine if you've got proper travel.

Idiots around here, good tim you've got a running stock SR20, wooo, something that everyone else around here has had easily, seriously its no accomplishment, quit bragging about it.

You cannot even seem to diagnose an actual issue, just throw parts at things, considering the source, your attempt at an attack is weak.
