Sort of kicking myself right now for not just doing the RMS when I had it all apart but it wasn't leaking at the time...

I just found this in another thread and had to post it somewhere so you're the lucky recipient hehe.

General question:

I've been thinking about getting the RJM clutch pedal kit as well. Should this affect my choice of clutch/flywheel kits at all?

The only thing you may have to consider is if you want to upgrade the master cylinder. Depending on which one, you may have to get a different fork, that RJM sells.

I have an older version and it's awesome.

I might just get the clutch first and then get the pedal assembly afterwards depending on how the clutch feels.

I'm going back and forth on rebuilding the engine or getting another car, if I rebuild I'm probably gonna change up the clutch.

220k? That's encouraging, just passed 170k on mine on my way back to Texas (from Cincinnati), you have to do either the master or slave (or both) prior to replacing the clutch?

Strongly recommend you replace both with a new clutch. They're fairly easy and not too expensive to replace and if one fails due to age it can cost you a new clutch which is a time consuming repair. Better to start fresh with new components.

Had the stock master and slave. I did have to flush the fluid every spring to prevent the stuck pedal issue. Went ahead and replaced them both when I did my clutch, no problems since.
