I will be installing a 23mm MC to feed the bigger brakes on the new car. I have heard that their are plumbing issues, and clearance issues when installing the bigger MC.
I'm looking for feedback from those that have done this. Here is a comparison of the new and old MC. I have some questions. 1) Ports 3 and 4 are the front and rear output ports. These correspond (location-wise) to ports 1 and two on the new MC. It seems that I can just transfer the hardware and lines over without any issues. Correct? 2) The locations of the feed lines are different between new and old. Is this going to be a clearance issue? 3) The hydraulic pressure switch (located between ports 3 and 4) does not have a corresponding location on the NEW MC. But there is another output port on the bottom of the MC (underneath port 1) that I can use? Any clearance issus here? 4) Does anyone know what the bolt on the top of the NEW MC is for? (between the red caps)... If I remove it, will a genie come out and grant me 3 wishes? These would be easier to answer if my car body were in the same location as my parts. (hopefully in a couple of weeks!) Thanks! Attached image(s) |

QUOTE(Howard R @ Feb 1 2004, 10:32 AM) You will have to file, cut, dremel about 6mm off the back of the bottom edge of the crossmember to clear the 23 mm master cylinder. Did it yesterday. wow, now we're talking! anyone who wants to buy a alloy cross-member that's already cut/notched for the 23mm MC ???? i have one on my car currently and i want to go back to the steel crossmember!
