Default Cable to hydro conversion using OEM parts????

Im asking this question for my bother. He has a crx. We know that there are a few cable to hydro kits for his car, but have heard some of them dont work all that well.

We were wonding if it is posible, or if anyone has ever done a conversion using oem parts. Meaning taking the actualy hydro clutch petal assmebly and its other components, and installing them into a crx, and just custom bent tubing.

Has anyone done this??? Is it hard??? I cant imagine it would be to hard besides some cutting, but i wonder if it fits???

I plan on doing this to a DA at some point. Someone on g2ic did it a long time ago, and he said it was pretty easy. I've looked and looked for the thread, but I can't seem to find it.

Just get an assembly out of a 94+ teg, and go from there. It seems pretty straightforward. Who knows, you may even be able to use the stock hard lines. I believe the guy on g2ic said he was able to use them on his DA. If not, you can bend your own lines(not that hard), or you can find a tubing/hose shop that can.

Hey GE, what series engine did he have in the crx?
Is there any difference between b and d series hydro clutch assemblies?
