Hi guys
I still have the problem with the clutch of the ZX, but its getting worse. When the clutch pedal is not pressed, there is a whirring noise coming from the gearbox side. The noise goes away if I pull out the clutch pedal a little bit.
The noise is worse when I press the pedal and after a while, the pedal gets very stiff and its harder to change gears.
I suspect that the cable is gone. What do you guys think?

Well, sadly your prediction became true. The release bearing gave up and desintegrated plus 4 fingers broke- I had to replace bearing, pressure plate and clutch disk bringing the total token newbold wrote:It's probably seizing up and will end up burning it's way through the fingers on the clutch.
US$310!
But at least I can do really nice burnouts when I rev the engine to 4500 rpm and let out the clutch hehehe
