vague statement. it depends what it's to be used for.

it's good unless he plans on making a lot of power in the future

with a b16 tranny and a lot of power you'll be slamming through the gears too fast

idk

what it is though is instead of hydraulic lines and a master cylinder, you just have a cable from the pedal to the clutch fork
