TT-RS/Golf R master cylinder

[mikejsmith1985]

My order is complete, I did have to pay full price though. I'm not sure how long the international shipping will take but it will be early December before I can start the install process. I will keep this thread updated with my status.

Thanks for the info. Did you use the TTRS booster as well?

I did not I used my OEM GTI Booster. It's a bolt on solution.

Here's a pic of the Touareg MC installed, when paired with the GTI booster the feel is greatly improved, I have Touareg 17z 4 piston calipers up front and TT RS on the back, just need to touch the pedal and it grabs like hell.

That's how I want my brakes to feel. I'm betting I won't get that with the touareg booster but without seeing everything in person I'm not sure how I feel about making the types of mods you made just yet. I'm sure it's all safe or you wouldn't have done it but I m also kind of hopeful that the RHD version could work without those changes. Unlikely though I'm sure.

If you are truly getting rid of the TTRS MC I can take it off your hands, especially if it comes with the reservoir installed

Someone beat you to it :-( but anything could happen by December when I attempt the swap. I will keep everyone aware of progress.

I've been looking all over for another on eBay but no luck. I should have played the lottery the day I bought mine. I did chat with the local Audi parts guy and he did confirm for me that both the TT-S and the TT-RS are the 25mm MC for anyone that is still concerned or looking. It also appears that the A & C revisions of the part number I installed are the same size the D revision is the 23mm like is stock on the GTI.

Wait so both the TTS and TTRS are the same? Hmm

That's what the Audi parts counter told me. I thought I found one on eBay but they didn't record the revision # so I got the VIN and had them tell me what was on it.

He did also say that the small one only came on 4cylinders, and the big one is on v6... I thought that the S is a 4cylinder and the RS is a 5cylinder though. So unless he was speaking specifically to the 09 model year and back then they used v6 for non base models he may not have had it all together. I'll document all the 25mm part #s from theTT and post them here though.


USA Spec TT part #s for 25.4mm MC
TTRS: 8J1611021E Left Hand Drive
TTRS: 8J1611021F Right Hand Drive (not sure why this is listed in US spec parts)

TTS
8J1611021E
8J1611021A
8J1611021C

8J2611021D
