Need to replace my clutch flex hose on my 99NB8A. Mazda have them on back order and need one asap. Anybody have any for sale or even a braided one or where to get them?
Cheers,Mark

Try one of our sponsors, James at MX-5 Centre perhaps.

About 100 I think. Master to slave complete, deletes the old hard line.

Thanks mate! Any particular reason why they eliminate the hard line? Is there any difference in not having it than having it?

Hard line is long and does an odd loop due to originally being a left hand drive design. Also have a loop in it that makes bleeding harder.
No loss as the braided line is just as strong as the hardline. (full rubber would be spongy)
