Hey all,
I'm at the point where the hydraulic clutch setup needs to be mapped out for my Subie conversion. The donor trans is from a 2006 WRX with a 13/16 slave cylinder. Initial reaction is to buy a 13/16 generic (wildwood or CNC) master cylinder so they match and give a “factory” clutch feel but after some internet searches it seems that pedal travel is also a factor and might mean a different size would be better. I’ve seen some GREAT hydraulic clutch threads but could not find one for the Subie trans setup. I’d assume the pedal throw is probably similar but could be wrong. BIGKAT is using a 3/4 and mentioned he might rather have a 5/8. His trans likely has a ¾ slave. Any insight or thoughts on this? You don't have to be right! Brainstorming is great too.

Eh what the heck I'm going for it. Getting a .75 wilwood master. Should I get the master with the clevis fork or no fork? I think no fork but that's just a guess based on looking at PRS914-6's thread. And where's the best place to get the hydraulic line?
