After pricing out a rebuild for my S1 tranny. I was thinking it would be cheaper to get a ITR tranny and convert to Hydro.
Is there any advantages, using one over the other?

Driver that have/had Cable and use/switched to Hydro. Didi you like one over the other? Witch would be more beneficial?

Just like to hear other drivers point of view.

 

cable has harder clamp force more stress then a hydro get the hasport kit cable to hydro works great and feels great

 

i have seen some of the all out drag clutches for the cable trannys actual shear the cables before due to the massive clamp loads required


i love my hydro tranny

 

i luv hydro too but mine is a shiftbox cable u kno kseries stilll getting use to this mechanism

better parts selection for hydro trannies....

 

Well, i never owned hydro, but there is one thing i love about cable trannies. It takes about .1% effort to hook it up. Loosen cable adjuster, place cable, tighten cable adjuster. Its cake. Hyrdo, bleeding and crap. Bleh that sucks. But i would say hydro is actually "better" overall.

 

Any more feedback? I may have to switch to hydro tranny in the near future, and I'd like to know more about this topic.

 

Anyone else using the HASport Hydro conv-kit?

 

i highly recommend the hasport cable to hydro kit feels great

 

I built my own conversion but it looks identical to Hasports kit and feels the same. My buddy has the Hasport kit on his car and he was pissed when i made mine and it looks basically identical for about 1/6th of the price.
