    Default RA23 master cyl.

    hey all, i need some clarification on some info i found around here.

    are the MA70 brake master cyliners a direct bolt up for RA23's? or are there modifications necessary??

    also, regarding the pug/corona/lux brake conversion for the RA23's, has anyone used current model SR5 hilux calipers instead of the LN106 ones? as i have a pair off a 2007 SR5 diesel doing nothing and if these will work then all the better.

    thanx in advance

    The MA70 is a direct bolt up to the booster but you will have to re route the brake lines to the m/cyl as they dont quite line up. You will have to check them against the earlier ones as far as calipers go as I am unsure.

    what about the GA70 would that be the same as the MA70 ?
    and the RA23 & RA28 are the same bolt patten.

    Ga/ma70 have the same master cylinder.
    im using a ga70 one in my ra23(straight bolt on with line mods as stated) with hilux calipers and stock drums, work a treat.
    GA23(never finished) JZX83 (Tyre eater) Turbo MX5 (Moment of weakness but awesome IMHO)

    I think you will find the mounting hole spacing is not 3.5 inches.
