Hello,
My 73 914 has been fitted with 911 rotors and 944 calipers. The guy installed the 944 vaccum brake booster and master cylinder in the spare tire well of this car. Needless to say, I am not impressed with his conversion. I wish to remove the power brake booster and install the master cylinder back where it belongs. My Question is, will the 944 master cylinder thats is currently attached to the brake booster bolt into the original 914 mount? If not what master will bolt up to the 914 and work with the 944 calipers? Cheers |

Must have been the car I saw at Mike's; was it silver?
AFAIK, only the non-boosted MC's will fit and work in the stock location. That would be the popular 19mm master, or the ultra rare 20mm master. There is also the Mercedes 23mm master that can be made to work. What are the actual piston sizes on your calipers. The pair I have has quad 28mm pistons, so I assume it is for the rear of a 951 from some year. |

I spoke with Jim at patrick motorsports and he recommends the 23mm for a nice stiff peddle, and the kit is cheap too. ( 250.00 USD) So I think im gonna go with that. |
