    Evo Brake Master Cylinder?

    Hey, usually on ozvr4, but site is down and desperated need some info on the evo brake upgrade.

    I didnt plan on doing the upgrade this early. But my standard brake master cylinder is rooted. So im thinking i may as well upgrade it to an evo one and do the brakes at the same time.

    Now, i seen someone use a evo 6 brake master cylinder, but i dont think it ended well with locking up issues. And doing a bit of research theres apprently a evo 6 1.1/16" and a 1" brake master cylinder or something.

    Any info on this would be greated appreciated.

    Also if anyone in Aus has a evo brake master cylinder and evo brakes (rotors, calipers, pads, lines) for sale. I would be keen to purchase asap.

    Thanks,
    Steve.

    The EVO 5-6's came with a 1 1/16" brake master cylinder. Carsten was the person that had the problem with his, I think the cylinder was stuffed, not 100% sure.

    yeah im expecting a large-ish bill to get the brakes done. but **** happens. i need them done, so gota bite the bullet regarding price.

    im trying to source the parts locally first as i want to get them asap.


    ^^^ if u could send me a quote with the parts i need that would be appreciated. so rotors, calipers, lines and master cylinder. preferably from an evo 8, but 6-9 is ok.

    if price and delievery time is reasonable. ill be very keen. thanks.
