is it worth the 18 bux from mazdatrix to get a clutch line? does the pedal feel increase or anything of the sort?

Have you priced a stock one yet? I believe theyre 15-17 bux. Go for the SS one.

Yeah, K2RD and Corksport both have stainless braided clutch lines for like $20 or so.

The biggest advantage to a stainless line is when using a heavy pressure plate - plates like the ACT Xtreme have so much spring tension that it big-time increases the line pressure on the hydraulics. This causes the rubber hose to swell, giving you a VERY low engagement point on the clutch - sometimes you can't even fully disengage the clutch. A stainless line fixes that problem.

Regardless, it's worth the few extra dollars over the stock one. But, I've seen aftermarket rubber ones here at NAPA in town for like $8-10, if you need one *now*.
