Clutch and Brake Fluid Separation Kit

Installed the JDP Brake/Clutch Fluid Reservoir seperation kit on my manual SS yesterday. Wanted to keep all of the nasty black clutch fluid in a reservoir of it's own and replace the brake reservoir with the one off an automatic. The JDP kit was easy to install and I didn't need to bleed the clutch or the brakes.

To anyone else installing one of these, it's pretty easy to install and fill the new reservoirs with Motul RBF600. Make sure you put plenty of towels and tissue everywhere underneath the reservoir to stop the brake fluid stripping off your paint.

Here's a few photos.

Nice, I made my own budget version of this, used a random pot for the clutch and blanked off the original feed pipe from the brake pot. Also changed the feed hose, my car suffered the pedal staying down, a common problem apparently due to contamination.

I was about to ask why do it but UK Blown SS seems to provide a reason (if you have the pedal problem).

Crap from the clutch can also work its way into the slave and into the reservoir.In turn that crap can enter the ABS solenoid valves which can block really easy. So very worthwhile mod.
