Do you already have a hydro tranny or do you just plan on running it? Personally, for the 4th gen platform I'd rather run a 92-93 cable case with whatever guts inside I want, but that's just me.

suja1 motoring has the kit you want, but you will still need a new tranny mount

150 for the bracket, 80 for the clutch line, 60 for the master, 30 for the slave, and misc bolts and clutch reservior and line. you will have to remove the dash and pedals. the steering column mount will have to be dented or knotched. the driver side vent tube will need to be removed and the upper part of fire wall need to be dented to clear clutch line. i used a 08 accord reservior since the mount hole is part of the reservior and not a metal bracket and its cheaper than buying the regular civic reservior. let me know an i can take some pix for you.
