hydrolic clutch for 2T

i own two ke50's. at one stage i thought one was a ke55 but soon found out it wasnt . anyway, ive heard that you can bolt a hydrolic unit from a ta22 straight up to the 3k. however the ke50 im doing up has a 2T celica engine in it . is it possible to do the same sort of thing with this engine? maybe using the mechanism from a different car.
also im looking to put an lsd in it. similar to a TRD 2 way if possible. what do you think would be ideal?
thanks in advance.

If the car has a 2T, it might be easiest to use a 2T box (ie T50) which is already setup for a hydraulic clutch.
As for the diff, what diff does the car currently have? You might have to do a conversion if you want a LSD.

im pretty sure it just has the standard ke50 diff in it. what is involved with a conversion, and approximately how much would it cost by itself?

KE50 is what you have in the avatar - AKA "THE POS"
diff upgrade depends on what you do for the costs - to get LSD will cost you close to $1000 methinks.
hydraulic clutch is easiest taken from a TA22.

hydraulic and cable clutches operate differently, one pushes, the other pulls.
K40/K50's are set up to use cable clutch.
enigne has little bearing on what clutch mechanism you use. it's all about the gearbox and clutch
what are you actually trying to achieve?

i just want a hydrolic clutch. clutch kicking isnt really ideal with a cable clutch . the previous owner told me it had a supra gearbox in it, but i have a feeling its a celica one. either way the same principal should apply shouldnt it? will the mechanism from a ta22 work with either box?
THE WITZL - y do you call it "THE POS"?

well if you are into fully sik clutch kicking than maybe you want to buy a honda or a daihatsu perhaps?
SO IS THIS FOR THE 3K MOTOR OR THE 2T MOTOR????
if it's the 3K, you have a K to W bellhousing?, or a K to T bellhousing? (the latter could be cable or hydraulic).
you need the mechanism that IS ON THE BOX... the bellhousing is either set up for hydraulic or cable and you need a different lever, since they work in opposite ways.
as for pedals, thats a totally different matter. just grab a pedal box and mod it to fit. angle grinder, welder, all good.
a better idea, instead of fitting a hydraulic clutch so you can 'clutch kick' is to learn to drive.

nah man i like my toyota.
it is for the 2T motor, the celica engine.
the 3k in in my other ke50.
dont worry, ill just get a T50 and use that.
some people have different driving styles and forms of enjoyment, such as drifting.

for the one with a 2T, is it actually a TE50? or the build plate says KE50?
is the box you have a W or T box? why would you downgrade to a T from a W?
if you have a W box already, then you have a 3TGTE or 1GG bellhousing, which should be hydraulic already.
if you have a T50, then getting another T50 won't help will it? all you need is a hydraulic bellhousing to go with the current T50.. i won't worry.. just be a little confused
ahh, so you kick the clutch to slip the rear end out so you can drift? sounds more like 'slide braking' then drifting

yea well i spose i shud have done a bit more research before asking the question hay. oh well, ill get back to you with all the details later and ill sort it out then. thanks for the help so far though.
yea slide braking is another drifting technique, but with the clutch kick, u have less chance of loosing power as u keep your foot planted the whole time. slide braking can be just as effective if your going fast enought though
