    nope its an f i have one for sale,
    I also have all the hydro stuff peddle assemble and all
    i believe you can use the speedo end
    not sure what you mean by is it plumed the same way ? do you have a hydro setup already ,, the capri has a small master cylinder for the slave and dose not use the brake master cylinder like some other setups
    hope this helps

          no my setup is with chris's adapter but i want to go hydro. i was setup for hydro just never bled it through and then i decided to use the adapter but now i want to go back to hydro. when i say plumbed i meen are the hydro lines routed the same way. when i took the hydro setup off my tiva i cut the lines like an idiot. i have the master and slave not sure if they are good because when i was trying to bleed the system they just didnt seem to hold pressure.

          so you say i can use the bottom part of the speedo cable and sensor?

            Just went out and checked and yes the festiva speedo cable screws on to the Capri trans speedo gear. The Capri that my trans came from was a 91 not sure if they are all the same ,but this one is set up just like the festiva no vss .

                The nonturbo Capri uses a hydro F-series. The festy speedo cable will bolt onto it. The speedo gear willl not work in a g-series.

                I'd like to see if the Capri pedal assembly will fit in the Festy, it'd be super easy for anyone to go to hydro clutch then

                  You would need a g speedo gear in a g, f in a f, and so on. Been there tried it. All the series have different length shafts for the gear.

                          Honestly, just buy some brake line from the parts store and bend your own. It's really simple. As far as I know all the cables attach the same way.
