Mk1 vr6 servo and MC upgrade?
Would I need to change both the servo and MC on my vr6 conversion or is it possible to just change the MC as it is originally the mk1 gti?
Any suggestions would be great,thanks!

1st one would do you fine, 2nd one will be 7" if its from a driver so skip that
Thanks mate. Its on £31 at the moment with 7 hours to go and £14 postage,prob will end up on like £60 incl postage if not more? This seems a bit much or is it just me?! :dontknow:

yeah is a bit steep, id keep looking if it gets above 40. any mk2 1.8 has the 9" servo you're after, you can even modify mk3 servo to fit by cutting pin off and tappign a thread in
to it. easier to get mk3 servos in good nick too. master cylinder are cheap new as well
Might have a look at a mk3 one then…keep my options open!

Never tried the Mk3 route myself - I would imagine that there will be a bit of trial and error to get the mk1 fitting in the correct position - if you get it wrong the brakes will bind on from the servo pressure of be really crap because you have to much slack before the master cylinder is operated.

i found that if you cut the end off on the line where it starts to taper its the perfect length
the main problem is cutting the thread as the rod diameter is way too big and will need grinding down to a shoulder
i have the one i converted spare as i ended up using the mk2 16v servo as this has four studs on the back and not 2 like the mk3 one if your intrested £50 +p&p for mc and servo ready to fit will even throw in the brake pipe tees you will need
also the mk3 uses a 23mm alloy master cylinder but this only has 2 outlets and they are 12mm thread however a 25mm mc from a van fits straight on and has four 10mm outlets. ive just fitted one and it reduces pedal travel alot

Thanks mate,so will this spare one of yours go straight on and work or would I have to do some mods?
