S5 Brake master on S4?

has anyone tried re-fiting the series 5 brake master onto a series 4 car.

I know the series 5 has a shorter throw, but I am wondering if there was any issues hooking it up to the series 4 pedal assembly.

The series 5 brake res has a small screw on the bottom that help eliminate the leaky master that is common on the series4 cars.

I have the series 5 master brake on my series 4. It was a direct replacement. You should get it from a car without ABS if your series 4 does not have ABS like mine. The plastic resivoir is also better construction so it is less likely to crack and leak. Guess that is it...
