I am turboing my EF this winter and i am wondering if any of the higher hp guys switch from the cable clutch line to hydro? I have a comp clutch stage 4 clutch and i just snapped my clutch cable after just a year of dd it, and i dont want to keep replacing it every year. It was brand new from honda when i swapped the motor. If you guys keep the cable is there a better alternative to oem? or should i just go hydro

 

Forget the cable and go hydro. I kept braking cables and pedals.

Skip the cable to hydro conversions and just convert the whole car over to hydraulic using a master and all.

 

+1

 

+2

 

+3

 

if i convert everything over do i have to change the pedal too, and if so what pedal do i use? anything 92+? how come you guys dont like the cable to hydro conversions?

xenocron where in ny is hillburn? im in the cap. district

 

x4.
hillburn is located near suffern about 5 minutes from the nj border.
usually you use an oem pedal and modify it and the firewall to make it work right. the cable hydro kits arent very reliable and look like **** too. its worth the extra time and money to convert it.

 

thanks for the info, i guess i will start shopping for parts lol at least the tranny was originally a hydro. is there a difference between civic and teg setups, like does one push more fluid or is stronger than another?

 

Yeah EG pedal, EG slave, reservoir and a line...

I had Albert @ Certified Racing do mine...unless you want to do it yourself (I didn't) they could certainly help you out at a decent price.

 

do you know if anyone has a write up about this, i cant seem to find anything in search or in the ef/crx faq's either

 

For my CRX i used a CRX pedal assembly. I modified it to hold a 92-95 civic master cylinder under the dash. Braided line from the master cylinder to the slave. My reservoir is on the firewall under the hood. The only cost i had in the conversion was for a new master. Everything else i had laying around the shop

 

I didn't know they made it then, but i made something identical to whats in this thread
