Hi Guys

Sorry for reviving a very old thread, but I couldn't find any other info on this.

Does anyone know the exact model that these master cylinders are off? Also can anyone tell me the bore sizes?

Cheers

It is from a Mazda 323 rwd 1977-1978
PN. JB1309 or JB1611 either will do one has a boot on the pushrod end the other don't can't remember which is which.
Cost about $130 new the one with out the boot is cheaper.
Bore size 13/16"
I use these on both my starlet powered car and my race car and they work well just can be a bit of a pain to bleed because they stand up in a mini.

bit impractical having to stand the car on its nose to top up the fluid :wink:

but bleeding the brakes would be easier having proper access to the brakes whilst its on its nose :wink: :wink:

Awesome thanks guys...

Was gonna get one from pick-a-part to it fit up run lines etc, then get it rebuilt it closer to completion, but they don't even have old 323s anymore.
Might have to go straight for a new one.

Cheers
