Any recommendations for new clutch slave cylinder?

[HAWAIIZR-1]

Man, can I get a break? After driving around and having fun with the new horsepower and prepping to go take my second emissions testing on Thursday, my clutch goes out.

At least I was close to home and just had to run 1 red light to turn around and get back home when trying to get some gas.

So I check out the system and find the clutch master bone dry and start thinking WTF since it was driving all day and night before with no hint of issues until the next morning. So I top it off and proceed to bleed it with help from a fellow C4 member that just happened to come over that day. No problem and air exits the line pretty quickly with pedal pressure and it is back to normal. At first inspection of the entire system I could not find any leak, but I knew there is a leak somewhere.

So I check it out again today since I was going to replace the O2 sensors and PCV valves and not going to attempt driving 3 hours with a clutch like that. I still could not find any leak, then finally after rubbing the surface with my fingers all over I find the hidden leak on the joint of the clutch slave cylinder housing and peel back a little of the rubberized black powdercoating or whatever you call it. This housing shoud be one piece in my opinion and no wonder it leaks.



So I thought to myself, no problem I have a new spare that I brought with me. I bought it years ago from a Registry member while I was stationed in Georgia back in 2004 but never really looked at it. I remember Bill B mentioning the how to and the reversed seal so I decide to check it out and find it is rusty inside the cylinder and I'm glad I opened it up to check before attempting install. So now I need a new one. I thought I might be able to clean up the rust and put it all back together but I don't think so. I will consult with Bill and get his opinion on Monday AZ time. So here is a new cylinder that is worthless and AC Delco box. This really pisses me off because the part on the car is new from late last year and less than 500 miles on it. Then to have a new part in the box and rusted inside is another thing; it could have been that way when I got it but who would know and think to inspect the inside of a new part.

So I see that someone mentioned that Bill gets his from Rock Auto. Bill's site is down, but I know I followed his recommendation to upgrade to the later model parts. I look up application for 94 MY and I see there is a bunch of brands with varying prices:

Rhino pac/World Car $52.79
SACHS $82.79
AC Delco $91.79
Wagner $83.79
Exedy $209.79
Brute Power $79.99
Bendix $60.99
Dorman $65.79

Exedy must be wrong and I don't think that is a clutch slave cylinder. I just noticed that looking at the photos all the other brands are like a cast metal body that appears 1 piece and the AC Delco is the POS that I have with a metal case that is 2 piece and joined or at least appears that way. The replacement part that I have that is rusted is also a glossy black metal housing that is coated with a rubberized paint. Can't we get good quality parts these days?

In an case, is there any recommendations?

So I have to cancel my emissions test appointment and leave from work as I am deadlined.

Thanks in advance!
