Question Hydraulic clutch conversion?

Is there such a thing as a hydraulic clutch conversion for my T5?? do the 94-95 gt's have hydraulic or are they cable as well?

the question is why would you want a hydraulic setup? and no the 94-95 is still cable

adding things to simply things makes them complicated things

Why all the hating on a Hyrdo clutch? never have to worry about stretching/breaking cables!

I love the Hydro clutch in my Teg. Saves my left leg in heavy city driving.
