Yes there is a conversion kit, however its meant for cars with a clutch cable not a master cylinder. Those are the only ones I've seen at least.

Short answer. You need a hydro tranny

Cable is better noob. Hydraulic clutch systems fail and require maintenance.

They do make the kits, but you'll be needing the Hydro to cable trans mount conversion as well the conversion for the slave/clutch cable conversion.

Honestly, in the money you are going to need to spend anyway, buy a hydraulic transmission and sell the cable one you have. That'll be the best choice.

I just converted my DA to Hydro from Cable.

Wrong. Look at the link I posted. Hasport makes a kit for BOTH ways.

Oh really? Is that why so many car manufactures use hydraulic systems? It requires little maintenance, whereas a cable must be adjusted every so often. Which is bad for people who have zero knowledge about the system.

Like I posted. Hasport sells said kit. Hydraulic transmission is the better option. The OP just has to decide how much $ he has to spend.

^^^^what these guys said, i know they have everything out there to do the swap cause i was looking into doing it myself since a cable tranny can be picked up a little cheaper than a hydro tranny but by time you get everything you need for the conversion might as well just buy a hydro tranny. but you say you already got a cable tranny though so, buddy of mine runs one converted to work with a hydro. system on the track and says he would do it on a street car in a heartbeat.
