Gti6 master cylinder - Niall - 03-01-2012
I will stop with all the brake related questions soon....promise!
Are there any different master cylinders on the gti6? E.g is there some which are abs/non abs and are does it make a difference if I use a non abs one on my car?
Cheers
Re: Gti6 master cylinder - Dum-Dum - 03-01-2012
I thought all gtis had ABS
Re: Gti6 master cylinder - Niall - 03-01-2012
I wasn't too sure that's why I asked. Ideally I will get one off a ph3 but if it comes off a ph1 it shouldn't make a difference should it?!
Re: Gti6 master cylinder - springs - 03-01-2012
all the gti's had ABS..
Re: Gti6 master cylinder - Connor - 03-01-2012
There are only 2 types of master cylinder... well Ive only found 2 part numbers on service box
Gti6 master cylinder - Matt - 03-01-2012
One for the rallye and one for a '6?
Re: Gti6 master cylinder - springs - 03-01-2012
knowing peugeot they changed the design ever so slightly on the later ph3's to suit the newer range of cars coming out at the time..

There the same ain't they? Wouldn't the rallye have abs If the gti does?
Gti6 master cylinder - Matt - 03-01-2012
No idea, thought there might be a difference but honestly I haven't got a clue. Thought they might be different part numbers lol
Re: Gti6 master cylinder - Niall - 03-01-2012
Be honest Matt, that was just a poor excuse to raise your post count and increase the size of your Epenis wasn't it? Lol
Re: Gti6 master cylinder - Foxy-jim - 03-01-2012
How does the master cylinder upgrade the brakes and would a gti one fit on my 1.4?
Re: Gti6 master cylinder - Connor - 03-01-2012
If you havent got GTi brakes mate, it will only make them worse

My Epenis is huge anyway
genuinely thought it might be different 
and for some reason I still can't get my head round what rallyes have and don't have lol
Re: Gti6 master cylinder - springs - 03-01-2012
thats because you own an XSI...
Gti6 master cylinder - Matt - 03-01-2012
Possibly, I still think rallyes don't have abs not sure why. Prob as they lack other things
Re: Gti6 master cylinder - Niall - 03-01-2012
Just looked on service box and realised two things. Firstly, f*ck spending 109 quid on a new one. Secondly, gti ones are 23.8mm apparently. I'm sure everyone uses 21mm ones don't they?!?
Oh and according to service box, they did do the gti in non abs.
Re: Gti6 master cylinder - Connor - 03-01-2012
HDi Dturbos and estates (I think the estates did anyway) had the bigger mc too
Re: Gti6 master cylinder - Niall - 03-01-2012
Useful to know. Will pick one up at the end of the month for my new brakes.
Re: Gti6 master cylinder - Foxy-jim - 03-01-2012
So how do they improve the braking?
Re: Gti6 master cylinder - Connor - 03-01-2012
They don't improve the braking, you only need one if you go for bigger brakes, personally i wasnt gonna change the mc when i put my git callipers on, just have braided lines
Re: Gti6 master cylinder - Foxy-jim - 03-01-2012
Ah right, fair enough. Ye I want some braided lines soon!

rallyes dont have abs
extra weight and if you were a true driver you wouldnt want abs getting in the way
Gti6 master cylinder - Matt - 03-01-2012
Didn't think they did
Re: Gti6 master cylinder - 4WayDiablo - 03-01-2012
