Anyone be interested in a clutch cylinder upgrade kit?

I know 'Sheddist' makes these but I'm pretty sure I can provide something similar a lot cheaper due to a few contacts I have.

The bracket probably wouldn't looks as pretty as the 'Sheddist' kit but would perform just as well.

I know some people could also make these themselves but some people don't have the time / space / tools etc

Would consist of the civic parts which are metal instead of plastic, probbaly be around ?100 delivered. I'd obviously pay to be a trader on here or whatever if needs be despite making literally only beer monies from it. Please don't PM asking for one now as I won't be doing it until he new year.

Cheers

Yeah would be the same quality, I probably wouldn't have the brackets powder coated though due to extra costs and hassle and would be a slightly different bracket design as I don't have access to a welder but would be just as solid

Sounds good bud, is a very popular upgrade and if you can make something of the same quality all the better

I think Nigel can get a lot of PM's for his kits, if you have not had a reply might be best to send a polite pm asking again

I think most of sheddists kits go to breakdowns.

Might even be worth talking to him about going into some sort of partnership.

I did mine with Rover 600ti parts and bike brake reservoir, had the original bracket re-done to fit the new cylinder and fancy braided pipe rather than have to worry about bending other stuff....

i suspect Sheddist would be happy to share with you or partnership if you are able to as he does have to do a 'shed load' of the things; and it might be easier than re-inventing the wheel as it were.
