I missed your post before. I'm not sure about the Cavy 5spd...is that an F23? Barry might have more info on it. My car has a 3.1L flywheel and clutch setup for the 282 5spd. I'm not sure what you would have to run for an F23.

All the stuff for a F23 would have to come from a 2200.

Got my new AC condenser in and I'm gonna try to charge it tonight. That's the last must-have on the wife's list for the Beretta. haha We'd have to leave the dog home if I can't get it working in time and finding a sitter for him is tough because nobody wants the slobbery mofo. And just got a vet bill for the other dog today...$750! Almost as much of a pain in the ass as kids!

I should crush this fucking car. I'm so sick of fighting it. Discovered today the new master cylinder is leaking...not out of any of the ports, but the piston. And RockAuto will not warranty it because it's over 30 days...it's like 55 days. I even spent the extra money on an ACDelco vs cheaping out on some Chinese garbage so I wouldn't have to screw with this kind of crap. I've had brand new Napa masters be bad so I wanted to get a name brand and it's still junk. Brakes feel fine, but the reservoir was half empty already and the brake fluid is dripping on the subframe and trans eating the paint. If the piston seal is leaking, who knows when it could blow out completely and lose pressure. Not gonna be able to get one before Friday and we are leaving early Saturday morning for Denver. I don't even want to take the POS now. It would probably be good for me to get away from it for a couple weeks so it doesn't end up in flames.

Just buy something local and quit whining... or put the stock one back in. You don't NEED the Lumina one for the Neon rear brakes, I've been running it that way for 2 years now.

How is the fluid getting from the master piston to leak externally? Is it coming from the booster where it's bolted to it?

I was fighting and fighting with my PS leak, TWO BRAND NEW P/S tanks later still leaking and I finally just took an OEM tank off my red car and slapped it in there and now there is no more leak.

Is the hotel we are using dog friendly? or are you staying somewhere else?

I am out of patience for this car right now, and more importantly out of time as well. Work has me doing OT to get ahead for the 7 days I'm out and I'm down to two nights before leaving. I can just see something come up on the road too and cost an arm and a leg to get it home. I probably could make it happen with the stock master and dealing with no AC if it doesn't work...but the Cruze is the smart choice and for my sanity now I think it's the only way to go. We're gonna stay at Tiff's sister's place. It's only 10-15 miles from Denver.

Yeah, I know. A Cruze to Berettafest is dumb. And lots of the Beretta guys haven't seen it yet, but I just don't trust this car right now. I had it on a few long road trips and it was great before...but it's been lots of little issues since it sat so long and I'm just out of time to get it all ironed out.
