Miks15 - 28/8/08 at 08:04 PM

Im half way through my pedal box consruction, and im not going to use my BMW master cylinder.

Any recomendations on what to get? Baring in mind cost! Plus my engine has hydraulic clutch so will need another master cylinder for this aswell.

So whats everyone else used?

Cheers

i'm using the girling type. pretty much universal, pretty cheap too i think. you can get them for £25 each (but not actual girling ones)

little bit cheaper (both need vat applied)

integral ones are a little more expensive, but non integral ones need a additional resevoir

I've got a brand new Girling remote.75" one spare 'cause I switched to .675" for my clutch. £20 plus postage if you are interested.
