I'm not sure a Master Cylinder upgrade is worth it. IMO

But 15" front rotors (13.1" stock) and bigger calipers and stainless steel braided brakes lines certainly are.
(note: 15' rotors require 20" rims)

I see you did a little brake tweak there, what else did you do other than get fancy looking rotors.
I'm not being sarcastic!
I'm trying to understand your reason for a Master cylinder upgrade.

Hey Man,

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner......

I have the EBC rotors and pads with SS lines and Motul 600 fluid. not really giving me what I ever wanted from a performance braking solution...

Was looking at the master cylinder for a couple of reasons, 1. there were a few guys at TRR that had brake fluid spilling all over the place in the engine bay (plastic = shit) and 2 would you get any better clamping force with upgrading these....

But now I have gone in a very different and monster direction to fix the problem anyway....

Baer 6R in the front and 4T in the back.. all under a 17" wheel.... Booooo Yaaaa

It will be an aftermarket wheel. But it will be a 17" wheel..

You will also need a custom spindle/knuckle.. For the better anyway, OEM spindles suck donkey balls...
