Default Default C5 Vs C6 Brake Master Cylinder
Anyone know what the difference is between the 2?
I know the calipers piston wise are pretty much the same.

Thanks,
Dave

Calipers are identical except the casting is slightly different which makes the C6 units more rigid.

Can't speak to the master cylinder, though.

The master cylinders are 2 different part numbers but look the same on the outside.

This is all I could find. Apparently the reservoir volume and piston diameter are the same for each.
