The factory clutch master cylinder has a damper built into it, and when you pair the stock CMC with a heavier-than-stock pressure plate the bolts that hold that damper on can actually fail. When that happens you lose clutch function immediately. That's not a maybe. That's a known failure on built Civics. Wunderladen Racing developed this clutch master cylinder to solve that exact problem. It ditches the factory damper that makes engagement feel vague and contributes to high RPM gear lockout. It swaps the factory 3-piece clutch line for a 1-piece braided line that sharpens up pedal feedback and kills two potential leak points. And it uses a machined threaded pushrod that keeps the factory pushrod length, which matters more than you'd think. If you're running an upgraded clutch this is one of the parts you do alongside it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHere's The Problem With The Factory CMC\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe factory clutch master cylinder has a damper on it. On a stock clutch it's fine. But once you put in a stiffer aftermarket pressure plate the forces go up. Those damper retaining bolts weren't built for that load and they can shear off. When they let go you lose clutch function right then and there. You're stranded. On top of that the damper makes your clutch engagement feel vague and mushy, and it can cause gear lockout at high RPM where you go to grab a gear and the clutch won't fully disengage. That's a real problem when you're driving the car hard. This CMC eliminates the damper entirely so you don't have the failure point and you don't have the vague feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSharper Pedal Feel - You Feel The Bite Point\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith the damper gone and the braided line in place the clutch pedal feels completely different. It's firmer. It's more connected. You can actually feel where the clutch bites instead of guessing through a soft, dampened pedal. Owners describe being able to set their pedal location and travel with way more precision because the feedback's right there. The 1-piece braided line replaces the factory 3-piece setup, so you get crisper feedback and you eliminate two of the fittings that could leak down the road. The pedal effort stays the same as stock because the bore size is the same. You're just getting cleaner, sharper feedback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCorrect Pushrod Length - This Matters\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHere's where Wunderladen does it right. A lot of CMC upgrades on the market come with a pushrod that's shorter than the factory unit. That sounds minor but it causes real problems. A short pushrod can give you insufficient clutch disengagement, which is the exact gear lockout issue you're trying to fix, and it can knock out your cruise control. Wunderladen machines their own threaded pushrod to maintain the factory length so you don't run into either of those. The clutch fully disengages and your cruise control keeps working. It's a detail that separates this from the cheaper kits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat To Expect - The Pedal Feels Different\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBe ready for this so it doesn't surprise you. Once the damper's gone you'll feel a subtle bubbling or crackling sensation through the pedal. That's normal. That's the raw, mechanical feedback you get without the damper smoothing everything out. It's not a problem and it's not a defect. It's just what an undampened clutch pedal feels like. Some owners are caught off guard by it at first, but it's the trade-off for the sharper feedback and for eliminating the damper failure point. Most people get used to it fast and prefer the connected feel. It's better than the problems it's preventing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eInstall Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1-piece flex line routes to the slave cylinder without any extra fittings. There's some routing you've got to do to get the line run but it's not difficult. Install the grommets into the factory brackets first, then push the fitting through. Take your time with the routing and it goes smooth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat You Get\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWunderladen Racing clutch master cylinder kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits 2016-2021 Honda Civic EX, LX, Sport, and Si\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEliminates factory clutch damper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePrevents damper bolt failure with heavier pressure plates\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-piece braided clutch line (replaces factory 3-piece)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMachined threaded pushrod maintains factory length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFirmer, sharper pedal feel with defined bite point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHelps eliminate high RPM gear lockout\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSame pedal effort as stock (same bore size)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMade in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wunderladen Racing clutch master cylinder kit for 2016-2021 Honda Civic EX\/LX\/Sport\/Si. Eliminates the factory clutch damper, whose retaining bolts can fail when paired with heavier aftermarket pressure plates and cause immediate loss of clutch function. Replaces factory 3-piece clutch line with 1-piece braided line for sharper feedback and two fewer leak points. Machined threaded pushrod maintains factory pushrod length to ensure full clutch disengagement and retain cruise control function (many competing kits use a shorter pushrod). Removes the vague factory feel and helps eliminate high RPM gear lockout. Pedal effort unchanged from stock (same bore size). Expect a subtle bubbling\/crackling sensation through the pedal once the damper is removed - this is normal undampened feedback, not a defect. One-piece flex line requires some routing during install. Made in the USA. One kit per order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n \n\u003cli id=\"VehicleFitment\"\u003e\n 2016-2021 Honda Civic LX\/EX\/Sport\u003cdiv\u003e2017-2020 Honda Civic Si\u003c\/div\u003e \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\u003cli id=\"Included\"\u003e\n\u003c!--StartFragment--\u003e(1) Clutch Master Cylinder\u003cdiv\u003e(1) Stainless Braided Clutch Line\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e(1) Clutch Master Firewall Seal\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e(2) Rubber Grommets\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!--EndFragment--\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Wunderladen Racing","offers":[{"title":"16-21 Civic Hatch","offer_id":45725525835810,"sku":"WUN-CMC-10HB","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"16-21 Civic Sedan\/Coupe","offer_id":45725525868578,"sku":"WUN-CMC-10SC","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2218\/5701\/files\/wunderladen-racing-clutch-mast_wpwd.jpg?v=1780591242","url":"https:\/\/www.hybrid-racing.com\/products\/wunderladen-racing-clutch-master-cylinder-10th-civic-si","provider":"Hybrid Racing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
