master cylinder upgrade

[dat16dog]

so I want to put a 1-1/16" / 27mm brake master cylinder on the VR4 rally car to try and get a firmer peddle with less travel.
In the US seems a common thing they do, using a variety of cylinders form other cars/makes. what do we have here that will bolt on?
anybody done this? results?

cheers

I used a evo 6 one on mine originally (evo 2) not 100% sure if vr4 is the same though.

it does help with pedal feel though

I have Evo 6 on mine too....noticed the difference as George said.

Are evo6 1"?
I got a rvr one- 1"
Must be pajero or something might use 1-1/16"

 

[DOUGMO]

no evo 5 on are 1 1/16"

evo 1-3 are 1"
