i was working on the 260Z last night and the clutch master cyander is seized...I was wondering if there was a replacement crossover part. preferably one that has a higher inner bore diameter to set up for an rb swap. (somewhere i read there was one with a larger bore size) would a 240sx clutch master cylander work, or one of a more common Z?

the stock bore is fine for most applications, I don't remember the diamter and stroke off hand but I believe the RB swappers keep the stocker, I do knwo that the bolt holes on the firewall fr a HOWE racing unit and most likely most other racing brands, the clevis and pushrod have to be swapped over or the pedal redrilled and then you'd have to run new hydraulic line or use adapters to mate to the stock line

and no I don;t believe the sx master will work, I think it mounts differently IIRC

i purchased the zx one and tried to modify it. the bolt holes are offset, (as opposed to being vertically inline with the master cylinder. it would have worked modifying it a bit but the actual shaft was too short as well.
