Clutch Master Cylindar Upgrade?

Hey guys, where can IO find a bigger clutch master cylindar? Mine is going out, so I thought I would get a little bit bigger one to lessen the problems of getting it into gear easily. Do you guys have any part numbers or places I could go for one? Thanks!

I doubt you would need a "bigger" clutch master cyl. The stock ones work fine for a variety of applications.

No body makes an 'upgrade' depending on the model you have,, s, gs, gsl, i've found that the gsl-se clutch master to be a bit better then the others, but really there all the same. me, i like a firm pedal and since there are no adjustments what i do is add an 'inner'
stiffer spring to the stock spring and that seems to work
well.

Almost any master cylinder can be retrofit. A larger one will result in a firmer pedal and less pedal travel before the clutch (dis)engages.

all you need to do is replace the clutch master and slave cylinders as well as the line and you will be golden. Give VB a call.
