Bigger master cylinder problems

[Bill Verburg]

While you have the m/c out it might be helpful in the future to measure the m/c
Here are the dimensions that are needed

Bill, I'll do that tonite.

I am trying to identify that Corrado unit as well.

Thanks,

ps I doubt that the Corrado will work

Bill, dimensions as promised:

Diameter D 41.5 mm
L1 152 mm
L 170 mm
SM Centers 86mm
Mount bolt centers 60 mm
Mount bolt holes 9.2 mm

No chance of this fitting my car unless I mount it upside down with the reservoir inlets at the bottom which is not really the best option. I'm onto AP racing as well for a special .

thanks

andy

Thanks!, those #s are for the 23? Do you still have the stock 19?

Sorry guys I don't have the original anymore.

The Corrado unit does fit. The stroke is the same as the ATE 23 mm unit. The original pushrod will also work. The clearance issues are largely solved. I have to make some shouldered nuts for it or fit longer pedal box bolts and the brake pedal stop needs adjusting. The proof will be in the final testing but its looking good .

See pictures below of trial fit.

Hi hassad did you ever get this corrado mc working? im strugling to find the 23mm here in the UK but I presume the corrado one will be easily available from euro parts etc.

Thanks Steve

Any updates to this corrado master cyl?

[Cornpanzer]

Would be interested in hearing how it worked as well.

Any news about the corrado mc?
What model year is it from? Partnumber would be great.
Thanks

See my post #14.

A search in ebay shows descriptions with similar specs: E.g.
VW BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER Golf Cabrio Passat Jetta Corrado 16v 357611019B (NEW) | eBay

These are one of my long term projects as well. However, after I suggested that alternate MC, Hassad did PM me that it worked.
