Hi guys,
I'm finally getting around to installing my 915 with Wevo sideshift into my Renegade conversion. I'd like to go with a hydraulic clutch setup. Anybody have a comprehensive list of parts? Will the 993 pedal cluster fit in the 914? Anybody use an annular throwout setup, like Wevo has for their racing clutches? Unfortunately, I believe that the Wevo piece doesn't have enough throw for the conversion clutch/pressure plate.
Thanks for your help...

Prs, I totally missed that on your build. Awesome.
Eric,
I have converted/grafted the 964 slave unit to fit the 914 pedal cluster.
It was not a difficult adaption, and it has been working nicely on my 914/6 for over 5 years now with no issues or leakage. It has a smooth linear feel to it.
Here are some really old pics taken during the conversion. It did require re routing the throttle linkage and having a custom cable made. Which can cheaply be purchased from Pegasus Auto Racing.
Good Luck.

I think im going to install a master cylinder from a 95 civic. Its $25 new, 3/4" and looks very similar to whats posted above.

I might try and make the stock slave cylinder work as well, but that is going to be more difficult. $11...

If they ever break, they are available at any parts store.
A few things to keep in mind......
1. There is not much room to mount a clutch and brake master cylinder side by side where each one mounts with a flange horizontally. One of the reasons I went with a vertical mount. Check the dimensions prior to purchase.
2. Check the stroke and make sure the cylinder is long enough
3. My slave is a "pull style" meaning when I push on the peddle, the rod RETRACTS. Not much room to mount on the other side on a 915 to use a push style slave. It pulls from the same direction that a cable would.
4. Make sure the slave and master are the same size diameter. Using the same diameter equates to the same movement as a cable would 1:1
It's been too long since I read those threads. My apologies for being a bit off. I'm gonna attempt something similar with an audi master (same geometry as the later P car cyls) shortly. My biggest concern is getting the throw on the bellcrank right as I'm trying to hook up to a stock audi tranny. We'll see as soon as I'm done with the motor mounts...
