    Master Cylinder?

    Would an e36 m3 master cylinder fit on a tree house racing brake booster? I want to upgrade my master cyl but i don't know what route i should go, tried searching and i couldn't come up with much. Any ideas? I'm running m3 brakes in the front and 318ti brakes in the rear.

    No it will not fit.

    What is the issue with your M/C that you want to remedy by upgrading?

        IIRC, the piston area for E36M3 brakes is greater than an E30 325 and this will affect pedal feel (may feel softer) and lever travel (more travel).

        So, see what your pedal feel and travel are like (in addition to F/R bias) with the new brakes. If you are having issues I would recommend a 25mm master with an adjustable bias valve plumbed for the rear brakes.
