Anyone every do this type of swap. I have the tranny and the Hasport hydro kit, but I don't want to use the cable kit that comes with the mounts. I would actually like to have a slave cylinder and master installed so it's completely hydraulic.
Any info is greatly appreciated.

I've searched here on Honda-Tech...and I've searched other forums also. I found a few things, but I was hoping that someone would be able to get in to detail about how the clutch master cylinder was mounted and installed to work with the pedal. Maybe even some pictures, just to get some ideas for my setup.

I do have that kit.
The kit allows you to use the hydro tranny and comes with a bunch of brakets so that the stock cable will pull up the hydro arm. What I want to do is use the mount that came with the kit and not the brackets and actually install a master and slave cylinder so that it's a true hyraulic conversion.
I just need more info on mounting the master and adapting it to the pedal.
Thanks guys

I've done that on my EF hatch, what we did we took the whole clutch pedal out of
92'95' VTI VTEC civic and than install it in my EF with some "minor" modifications,
You have to make whole into fire wall for that cilinder, cause in the engine bay you don't have enough place so half of the cilinder is in the engine bay and half is in the car....
on the right you can see another fluid tank from hydro clutch
(sorry that's the only pic I have right now)

What I used is :
- 92-95' clutch pedal + fluid tank
- 92'-95' hydro tranny
- Hasport hydro clutch tranny mount
But I saw that Willwood makes a pedals that have cilinders forward to seats and those fluid tanks are also in the car so all you have to do is make whole for that fluid line...

So the clutch master cylinder cant fit in the engine bay like it does on the 92-95 civics?
I need to do the same thing, the clutch assembly from hasport is blocking the charge pipe on my turbo kit.

Nop it won't fit cause it's to long so you must modiffy your pedal so that half of cilinder is in the car and other half in the engine bay !
A lot of work but if you have idea how to do it it's not so complicated, lucklly
my mechanic did that conv. for me ;0) he's full of those crazy ideas in right places...if it won't stick like originally you modiffy it to be as close it can, that is his moto :0)
