Mastercylinder differences?

[Vtechno]

whats the difference if any, between the ABS and NON-ABS mastercylinder?

[oneoffaccord]

ABS is a 1" bore with a bigger fitting in the back and a NON-ABS has a 15/16" bore with two of the same fittings

They're not directly interchangeable, but w/ some cutting and flaring, you can switch the proper fittings around to make it work.

[Vtechno]

so too convert too non abs, you need a non abs mastercylinder....right?

[Vtechno]

i need a new MC anyways, and would like the VTEC prelude for the slight upgrade since its the same price, but arnt they ABS too? How did CPmike make that shit work....?

[ap716]

is it necessary to change the rod seal?

[oneoffaccord]

a prelude si or vtec would work but you will have to reflare a new line with the rear fiiting on the master

[Vtechno]

eh, ill just use an LX mastercylinder.

[Granite CB7]

I think it'd be worth the extra work to use the Prelude VTEC M/C on your LX

[champagneaccord]

I dunno about that granite, brake lines can be a pain in the ass.

You need alot of patience and certain tools to flange out the end.

And of course.. the right fitting.. god forbid :*(

Best luck whichever way he picks

ive got an EX w/ fuck up abs so ive converting. theres a guy locally who is doing my brake lines. the vtec mc wont be worth the extra effort. i am having my hard swap lines done in braided. flexible line too make the installation much easier.

thanks for your help guys.
