: Clutch cables breaking left and right!

I have an ACT Extreme Pressure plate with my BB sr20det setup and I have snapped two clutch cables in less than a year and the third is going too! They just seem to stretch little by little until they snap.

I know the pressure plate is supposed to be 95% stiffer than stock which has given my wife and I awesome left calf muscles. I wish I could just go to a lighter weight pressure plate but I don't have the money right now.

Is there any stronger cable out there? Is anyone else having similar problems.:mad:

any help would be much appreciated.

Where are you getting your cables? I have heard that you need to get the cable a a Nissan dealership all the other ones suck!!!

All the cables I have used are factory Nissan cables. Each one lasts about 10,000 miles.

hey man check your bracket that mounts to your tranny that lets the cable adjustment, mine has snapped due to this bracket flexing...... i actually had mine welded so it wont flex....
