Fast forward to Spring 2001. Now the brakes were pulling hard to the right, enough so you had to anticipate and counter steer to the left to avoid going off the road. What could cause that? Well, sticking wheel cylinders. Not at all uncommon, so figured we would replace the wheel cylinders. We...

Upgrading your brake or clutch master cylinder (hereafter referred to as a "master") is a great way to improve the feel of your braking system. A Brembo master cylinder offers a wider choice of master cylinder configurations and better construction than a stock master. That's not to say that your...
