Innovative vs Hasport (Cable to Hydro conversion kit)

[DA9B18C]

Has anyone used either of these products??

its a setup to use for a cable setup car to run a hydro gearbox.

if so, how did they find them?

direct fitment? quality?

what's your overall rating??

any feedback.

(also, dont say 'convert the whole setup' that wont happen)

Um, a "hydro gearbox"?

Is it a hydraulic shifter mechanism, replacing a cable shifter??

hydraulic clutch vs cable clutch

hydro clutch release john

had a hasport going for well over 3 years now
still going strong & doesnt feel a lot different to the stock clutch pedal from what i remember.

its had an oem b18 clutch hanging off it the whole time,so cant comment on how reliable a HD clutch setup would be

only PIA was having to get the cable lengthened to suit.

if i did it again,i'd prob do the full hydro conversion,but u didnt want to hear that did u....

Thanks CRXer.

It is just a tad confusing since 'hydro' specifically relates to water, not hydraulic fluid....

Yeah, I know. It's a constant aggravation that so many other inhabitants of this planet are not as perfect as I am...

I realized a little while ago that I was much too superior to the rest of the inhabitants on this little planet. I worked out that no one I met or came into contact with ever was up to the standard that i'm on.

A short while after I thought to myself........... I should always put myself in another's position before I say or do anything, just so that I would at least have an educated guess about the way others would feel from my actions & words.

From then on, I realized that I wasn't so good after all. I was the best of the best coming from my perspective, but when looking from another's perspective, I was horse shit.

You my friend have always been highly regarded by me, mainly because of the mature posts & replies I read here on this forum from you, not to mention the long and thoughtful replies, viewpoints & being very informative.

On topic.

I have a y1 gb.

Can I bolt a type R GB onto my y1 clutch housing?

in essence, its still a cable setup isn't it?

I mean, its only just a mechanism to convert the cable pull into a "HYDRO" box.

So you're not really getting the benefits of a pure "HYDRO" box. ie, pedal feel.

[CRXer]

yes its still a full cable setup
the converter just lets u pull a originally hydraulic(better john?)horizontal acting release fork with a originally vertically acting cable.

as for the feel,as a daily driver,i have no complaints with either weight or accuracy,but like i said its still an oem clutch hanging off the end of my setup.

But does it actually feel any different to the stock cable arrangment? I can't help wondering what the point might be when there are so many things to spend money on that are worthwhile. The only advantage I can see might be that if a much shorter cable can be used, then some cable 'sticktion' might be eliminated?
