I bought a master cylander last week on ebay, it was supposed to be a 19mm to replace the existing one on my 6. Doesn't seem to be a 19, but rather a 23mm. It actually has 23 stamped on the bottom of its case. Sorry I don't have any pics yet. So I was wondering if anyone knows whether the 19mm had 23 stamped on it... And if this is a 23mm, can I use it with a set of stock 6 calipers? Is there any additional installation that is required?

These were used in nonboosted Mercedes cars, and seem to be around. The 23mm will fit with actuation rod modification, but will make the pedal very, very hard on a stock car - really too hard to effectively modulate.
They will work fine if you have large (ie turbo 911) brakes on the car, but they really are only for that use. Stick with the 19mm for a street car. |
