Hi Guys.
I do not know if anyone of you have similar experience and can maybe give me advice.

I drive a 94 volkswagen mk1 that still uses the old clutch cable method of depressing the clutch.(mk1 still also being made here in South Africa).
They have a reputation of not being one of the softest clutches in the world due to the cable usage.
My problem is that my datsun's original 77 clutch cable's age and wear got to it and I needed to replace it.
I bought a non genuine clutch cable after going to Nissan to check out the genuine cable.
The nissan cable looks exactly the same as the non genuine cable even on the inside but costs 6 to 7 times more.
My problem is that it it is very hard to press when shifting.
I have used engine oil with only minor effects and after driving a day or two it is still difficult to use.
I cleaned it out and used dry lube that I bought for my mountain bike's chain.
(I do mountain biking over weekends)
It is a wet wax that flows like a liquid and after 5 hours the liquid has changed into a wax deposit.Great dry lube.
I applied it over a time frame of 5 days.
Every day I come home from work poring some into one end until it comes out on the other end.
The 5th day I applied alot of copper compound grease to the ends and installed the cable.
It made a HUGE difference.Much lighter.
Much better to use the clutch in traffic.
But after 3 days now it starts to come back to being a effort in using the clutch.
It is not that difficult to press but it is a little bit heavier than my Mk1.
Is yours also a bit heavy?
If not any suggestions on what I must do to get it lighter.
My problem is that I have felt alot of people's A14 utilities.
They are much lighter than my clutch.
The clutch is not a culprit because it was replaced a year ago.
It had no effect on the old cable then indicating that it was the clutch.
