ITR vs. GSR master cylinder and brake booster
I know there have been a million posts about this already. I have read all of them. Does anyone know definatively if there is any real performance advantage to running the ITR over the GSR?
My EG will be a dedicated autox/HPDE car. I will need to stop very hard, very fast over and over. It's ok if i have to bend and reflare some lines.
Also my car is non-ABS. Does this have any effect on using an ABS 1" MS?

MC/BB from an ABS car is the same as a non ABS car. It matters at the PV and on.
I think all integra's that have the 1 inch MC use the same, because i got a LS 1'' MC and it looks exactly like my friends ITR 1''

non-ABS uses 15/16" MC and ABS uses a 1" MC. The brake boosters have different part numbers so they most likely are not interchangeable.

Re: (NB)
Itr is much better, I have done this swap in an eg.
The booster is bigger and the master is different, it gives you more mechanical advantage.
It fit's 100 %.
All you have to do is cut and reflare one of the lines cause it's on the opposite side and has to be relocated, I know this had to be done when going from a gsr/sir to a type r master booster setup.

Re: (superdupervtec)
i just picked up a supposedly IT-R (definitely 1") MC w/BB for m EH3 (EG). tha connections for tha lines on tha MC are fortunately on tha same side as my orginal stainless steel lines. however, tha connection closer to tha BB has a larger opening than tha orginal 3/16 brass fitting.
what did you guys do for that conversion? i can't find a reducer in metric or that brass fitting in metric anywhere anywhere. my only chance of findin' it is if i were to go to a junk/salvage yard, which tha closer one is 2 hours away. unless, you guys can suggest somethin' else for me.
thanks,

Re: (tallazzFilipino)
ITR is always better hands down in any situation, you cant get anything better from the factory then itr stuff so id say go with that, but a gsr would be just as good for you needs. i had a vx with gsr complete swap and did a bunch of auto x's and lots of track events. the braks were awsome!

so, i guess none of you guys ran into this problem? i can't find a frikkin' reducer anywhere, especially for metric. this is a pain in tha azz.

GSR and ITR booster/brake master cylinder from 98-01 are the same.

as far as tha MC's go and what's visually obvious, aren't tha reservoirs different? tha IT-Rs hold more.
