The stock 17mm master cylinders are NLA. 19mm MCs are running about $235. Automotion has a 23mm MC that's only $110. It says it's for 914s with upgraded calipers, but I'm wondering about using it with stock brakes. Anyone have any experience with these? There is no clue about whether it is ATE so I suspect not and so I also wonder about longevity.

How strong are your legs? You'll lose all that leverage moving to a bigger MC. I wouldn't do larger than a 19mm unit - even with big/humungo brakes.
The 23mm units are mercedes MC's and you might have to dimple your A-arm cross member to get it to fit. |
