Default ITR Fuel Pump, ITR Master Brake Cylinder should I or shouldn't I...

Just finished the ITR swap... I have a chance to get my grubby little hands on a master brake cylinder from the ITR and the fuel pump. I got a 97 CX with the ITR engine and pretty much all the extras... My questions are:

1. Is it worth my time to swap out the fuel pump for the ITR pump?

2. Is th worth my time to swap out the master brake cylinder as well?

Thanks for all the useful replies...

You can get a walbro 255 for 80 or 90 shipped in the sponsor section.
And for the mb cylinder. I'd do it if it's a good price.

It was good enough until i decided to run a drag ecu. I only did that for a few runs and the fuel pump gave up.

I'd recommend upgrading it. It's not hard and it's inexpensive. Save you the trouble of gettting stranded when it decides to give up.

i have the same swap in my 97 hatch. in the beginning, i also did these upgrades to my car. i swapped out my dx fuel pump for a jdm itr fuel pump. simple install, just be sure to plug the fuel lines when you disconnect them to prevent spillage. and is the itr master cylinder worth it? hell ya. before i did my gsr disc swap, i started out by swapping in the itr mc and brake booster, but still using my dx brakes. the main difference here is pedal feel. your pedals will no longer feel mushy and unresponsive anymore. try and get the itr brake booster to go along with the master cylinder

Yeah, right now the brake pedal does feel rather "mushy". When I go there to pick up the rest of the stuff, I'll grab up the three parts. I'm curious what your 1/4 times are... I'm going to the track tomorrow but I sort of want to know what the deal is...
