its true, there's something about it in the articles section, they bolt straight in place of your old master cylinder, it goes from the twin reservoir setup to the single setup, heaps better pedal feel. you just have to bend your brake lines around a little bit but its easy as to do.

Just about any 4 bolt Toyota M/C will replace a RA23 unit, as well as RA40 and Supra, you can fit RA60/RA65/SA63 ones....whatever, check that you are in fact getting a bigger one, say a 7/8, 15/16, or 1 inch to replace the 13/16 original unit.

This is news to me....I assumed the old rule of thumb that R engined Toyota's have a 4 bolt while T engined Toyota's have a 2 bolt.

It says brake booster, not master cylinder guys, my master cylinder is fine (stainless steel resleve, and no, not my option I would have gone for a bigger one)
My brake bosster has a vacumm leak that makes my car backfire through the carb so I was going to get one form a wreckers and rebuild it, then swap it over so my cars not off the road while I fix it.

we understand this, we are still giving u valuable information that u should pay attention to.
if u consider buying a RA40 unit (as some people here have said its the same) u will find your hunky dory resleeved 4 bolt master cylinder will not bolt up to it.
WHY?!? RA40 has a 2 bolt master cylinder, therefore booster wont take a 4 bolt master cylinder.

I'm using the standard booster on my RA23 with a SA63 15/16 MC bored to 1 inch and re-kitted. Very nice set-up, good feel, nice progression in the pedal travel to brake effort relationship.
