My car's kit from WGP for LS came with a 3/4 Tilton Master w/ adapter to OEM pedal and a mounting plate for the firewall. They also provided a modified Brake Booster fluid reservoir to supply the fluid to the master. |

I guess my main question is other than WGP who actually makes them for our car. I find all sorts of pictures of people running smaller ones but no info on what brand etc they are. I have a clearance issue with my motor and need something that is right under 3" off the firewall.

Vorshlag has one designed, they just haven't released it yet. They are busy with other projects and now that good weather is upon us, I imagine they will have even less time for projects (big time racers). So don't hold your breath on it being released any time soon. I just need to get the measurements, but plan on having my friend machine me up an adapter. Once it is designed and machined, super easy to make another one. So I can get more made if need be.
edit: I will get a measurement today of the Tilton Master most of the swaps seem to be using.

This is one of the most recent ones I have seen. I messaged the guy twice and he kept saying clutch masters made it. However to my knowledge they didn't fool with masters, but I emailed them anyway just to be sure I wasn't wrong. They confirmed that they did not make them.

What's interesting as well. If you type in FRS or BRZ clutch master cylinder in google images the S2000 one comes up from JHPUSA.com.

I have a friend with the Tilton/Wilwood Master to Honda Master adapter, Seeing if he can measure the mounting hole distances and angles for me to see if they are the same. This may be the solution on a master cylinder mount without needing custom parts made.

Well he missed the word "Clutch" and thought I meant Brake master. So still not sure there. May eat the price and order one up anyway and see what happens.

Bolt spacing/angle is not the same on the honda/S2000. You can slot the bolt holes a bit and get it to fit, though it sits a bit crooked.
