Agreed. Stock works great if you keep everything in good shape. Just figured I would try the hydraulic setup to see what it's like. When I was looking to buy a 2nd gen, I took many 4 speed cars for test drives. No matter what the overall condition of the cars, they all had one thing in common....terribly adjusted or worn linkages. After cleaning, lubing and setting one up for a seller, (15 minutes work) he decided to keep the car since he was told it needed 2000 bucks work to replace clutch....
