I've seen a lot of posts saying they have hydraulic clutches but no info on what the configurations are.
I'd like to see photos of what it all looks like and how it was put in.
Specifically what the master and slave cylinders were out of.
I've got a 5 speed supra gear box and intend to do a conversion even though my clutch is fine, tight, but fine.

when i used 2 do 4 speed Aussie box conversions in the 80,s i used Holden HR hydrolic mastercylinders and slave cylinders.so Holden EJ-EH-HR will fit.
not sure about 5 speed boxes, but couldnt see why u couldnt adapt 1 to fit.

OK, with my supra I used HK master and toyota slave,Castlemiane Rod Shop bell housing std beddie clutch pedal, but I fitted the chev so I made the floor/engine cover tight (plenty of room for a boot too) ..... however .... I will and have been told to change over to XW master cylinder, the HK leaks like a sieve (on my third ) and costs a fortune to replace.... wont get to the van/ camera till sunday but can take some photos if you like- tell me want you want.
Also if your pedal is really hard, try lowering the push pin (on the pedal arm) 1/2 inch at a time till you find the sweet spot (this i will take a photo of for u) and I owe that sweet spot to Ken Kinnear ....man what a difference....
when you fit your master cylinder make sure you re-enforce the fire wall with a piece of 3mm plate....to ensure no fire wall flex .
