Thread: Clutch slave---NOT Taiwan

    Default Clutch slave---NOT Taiwan

    Is my only option an OE slave if I don't want a Taiwan cylinder? OReilly and Vatozone are Taiwan........... Does anybody know of a US or Japanese cylinder available?

    Aren't OEM's made in Japan?

    For my last leaker I got a repair kit and fixed the one I had for under $15.00. I didn't pay any attention to COO on the kit.

    Yes, the OE cylinder is made in Japan, that may be the only option. I was hoping an old line US company like Borg Warner sold a US made unit. Flyin Miata has the OE unit for $55.
    Rebuilding is an option, just need to get the old one off and apart so I can inspect the bore.
    The NAPA unit is made in Italy......LOL...don't know if that is a good thing or not.

    If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

    The last Mazdaspeed order I placed included some little OEM parts in the familiar plastic bag with white and blue label. At least one of the labels said made in China.

    FYI Oreilly sells wheel bearings from National Bearing, built in North Carolina.
