right yesterday ordered a 944 m/c and it arrived this morning
 . Went to collect it (genuine ATE £97 UK pounds)..thought it would be tricky to fit with front/rear outlets being vice versa, but the front pipes reached the rear outlets no probs, and the rear, well when i fitted a 'T' for the switch and made a stubby pipe to go to m/c all fitted well ! the other possible stumbling block was goung to be the reservoir pipes into the m/c. the 944, as bug ones as large dia. fittings that go in. my Audi m/c as for the type 3 one has smaller ones - the type 3 has one of these fittings real flat so the tie rod can pass over it, but these ones were too small for the 944. i had a new set of proper bug ones, fitted them and re-routed one of the res pipes over the tie rod - thought i'd be tight on space with gas tank but plenty of room! so another problem sorted ! the piston rod on the pedal which i had previously extended for the audi m/c (by 15mm) was perfect for the 944. pressure bled the brakes again.. lo and BEHOLD- I GOT PEDAL !!!!!!!!  All I can say is many thanks, especially to Lanner for the 'logic' and thanks for the power of the internet and sharing of information  pics below. just to prove a 944 m/c CAN be fitted to a type 3. Cheers guys, Angelo LONG LIVE THE GERMAN LOOK - THE HOME OF INNOVATION !

Looks good. And DAMN! That's a clean car. I'm sure I and everyone here appreciate your efforts. It's one less thing for the next guy to figure out.
Is there such a beast as a 944 right hand master cylinder? Or are they all the same worldwide? (The one you have is the same as the ones I use on this side of the pond, a LH one). Lanner

hell yeh thats clean. only a bit jealous, lol. anytime i go near the underside of my car i gets covered in crap. i'm pretty sure my m/c that came off a n/a 944 has the front outlet on the other side. oh does the brake light come on early enough with that setup? i fitted a push type switch on the pedel itself cus heard light wouldn't come on soon enough with big brakes?
