    Where'd you find your's for $20, James?
    A good guess would be the junk yard. ;)

        The best thing I ever saw at our yards was a older 7 series - like I know the model number, it's not a 3 series - that was labeled as a 5 series. The badge was removed, but the faded glue showed it was a 750iL. I popped the hood. Engine was gone. ;)

          At black forest they say whether it supports ABS or not. I'm guessing all 750iL master cylinders support ABS? I'll be ordering from BMA, Black Forest sucks balls.

            I got mine for $50 shipped from The Euro Depot. Came to me in great condition off of a early '90s 750. Will swap it out sometime this week.

            Used and not abused is definitely the important factor... and 7 series tend to not be abused (in my opinion).

                it the 750 a better upgrade than the e28 m5 one and does the 750 fit with the s50 motor install.

                      is this just a direct bolt-on replacement?

                      As time went on, the factory developed the car each year, making it faster, more comfortable, and capable of handling at higher speeds.
                      You don’t want this. You want the trickiest, most dangerous, oldest model you can find. Only then can you prove to the world that you’re a man.

                        Yea, it was.

                        I never did this, btw. I'll mess with it later.

                          Does the 750 MC upgrade work with stock E30 brakes?

                          Any online resources with more info on this?

                          Thanks

                              no, it's not an "upgrade"

                              fporro and others have increased their caliper piston bore and accordingly increased the MC diameter,

                              but as far as a street car goes.... a bigger MC is nothing but FUH RAZE
