Title pretty much says it all. Is the action the same?
I know this entails a new pedal assembly, reservoir and master cylinder, slave cylinder, line, and what not.
But could I convert my non-turbo cable clutch to a hydro?
I searched a bunch and couldn't find a direct answer. Thanks!

Re: Convert Non-Turbo 5MT from Cable to Hydraulic?
The 2.5rs had a hydraulic push-style clutch, I believe, but whether a slave cyl. will mount to your trans, I don't know. The master cyl. bracket will bolt right in, though.

I'm sure it could be done, but there's no real advantage to the change. At the very least you would have to drill and tap a couple holes for the slave mount or build a suitable bracket. Swapping to an actual turbo tranny would be a better option.

That's a really good point. My 4th gear syncro is not long for this world... it would probably make more sense to just get a spare transmission than to have this one rebuilt.
