Master Cylinder W/ ABS March 09, 2015, 02:21:16 PM The master cylinder went out in my 1987 Turbo Coupe, and I'm having one hell of a time trying to find a new one. Does anyone know the part number for this or even where I can find/ buy one??Thanks, trying to get this turd back on the road before winter comes again. Quote Selected

Most just swap to a vacuum booster and conventional MC but that does require a bit of plumbing work... In the real world those rarely fail, generally the relay that operates the pump fails so there is no boost assist... Relays are just a few bucks... Quote Selected

Master Cylinder W/ ABS Reply #5 – March 10, 2015, 12:04:38 AM For $900 I'd rather spend my money and massively upgrade my master cylinder to something from a high end company.I'll probably be going down the conversion road, thanks again for the links Aerocoupe! Quote Selected
