    will this master cylinder fit my car?



    this is the one that i want to buy. my main concern is if it will properly fit on my 87 325. im not 100% sure if that master cylinder is identical to the e30 m3 master cylinder. and if so, what modifications must be done in order for it to fit on my car. i heard you have to slightly bend a hard brake line, but thats it. thanks for the help as always

    I think m3 e30 are 23mm, that is a 25 which came off the bigger cars. It will bolt up but pedal pressure might be very hard. some like it, some don't. I used that master on my 88'Is 24v but I'm running M3 e30 brakes all around and really like the way it worked out for me. Joe

      With stock e30 calipers it was firm. It's a matter of preference.

        So that one fits with the stock booster? I thought that the 25mm MC would only fit on an IX booster.

            So wait, it's the same for ABS and non ABS cars? I want to put one of these on an early 318i, I did a rear disc conversion and the pedal is too soft for my liking.

              You'll need a tee for the front brake lines as mc on abs equipped cars have only 2 outlets.
