reading another thread about the clutches. this one looks like a push clutch, and im kinda leaning towads just making it cable. The commodore one i had on the aussie box was pull cable and was light and good
.
can i make this one a pull clutch ??
or should i just persue with the hydrolic?

here is a photo of the hydrolic clutch at the base of the bellhousing.
havinga look at it today, it looks like there is no way that i can get this to be a cable clutch. the pivot arm is in the totally wrong place.
this is a photo of the kinda pedal im looking for , it came out of my mates hydrolic clutch setup in his torana
is that a torana pedal??
Cheers guys

Evan if I was you I'd not even think about using that hydraulic setup
Looks to me like the slave has no chance of pushing straight in a fit
The master will sit on a stupid angle on the firewall to make it fit too
There must be a better way

that slave looks a bit weird , cos the rod isnt positioned properly.when it sits in teh clutch pivot fork , it is much straighter.
got any other seggestions?, but i think im stuck with this hydrolic shit.

This way the ratio will be nicer and they will work as they should
What that means is fitting the correct Toyota slave to suit the box
There should be mount holes for it there somewhere on the bellhousing
Need to make sure its pushing straight...... hopefully the fork allows this (hoping its still a toyo fork)
Then you need to adapt a master
TrevvyD (Trev the kiwi. I can give you his phone # off board) can help you with how to setup a system under the dash so you can run a Toyo clutch master to get the right stroke ratio
He did this on his UC hatch with RB30
Its all under the dash so no firewall booster issues.
He said it was easy to do and since he's a mechanic with a workshop he should be able to advise,help or even fit it for you.
Thsi would be what I would do if it was me anyway

thats not exaclly correct in evans case as he's using holden throwout fork and pressure plate.Ideally rid yourself of the Holden stuff and use Toyota hydraulics

the only item toyota in his clutch setup is the clutch plate which is the same thickness as the holden one anyway
ev use the cable/rattrap setup it will give you better clearance and less headaches

The dellow kit and the CRS kit give you the bits to convert your pedal to the push type needed for hydraulic with a bit of welding. They are not pretty but they do work.
Any other setups with Toyota cylinders etc you come up with - you will be on your own for mounting brackets etc, but no reason to hold you back if you have a better idea.

He set one up for me a while ago, and it was a bloody neat, bloody smooth, bloody light system. Far superior to the hydraulic setup for an LX.
