RHD vs LHD Brake master cylinder

So ive been doing some research on what the difference is in the RHD vs LHD brake master. I went to the mazda store close to where i live here in japan. They want $$400 for a new one. Yes i could rebuild, but i just want new due to doing a full resto on the FD. I can pick one up a LHD for around 250 only difference im seeing is the position at which the banjo bolts go in due to abs routing. I will be doing a ABS delete so im thinking i could just use a LHD one. Let me know what you guys think.

It looks like the RHD is a mirror image of the LHD. The MC will bolt to the booster, If you are eliminating the ABS, then you will be making new/rerouting lines.

I was thinking the same thing. I pretty much answered my own question I guess. Just wanted some reassurance. After a little more research think I’m gonna end up getting a chip racing 929 master. They have the rear port machined for the banjo bolt.
