This will be the third in 50,000km :mad:

Can you buy the stainless sleeved ones off the shelf?

My clutch fluid is a dark grey colour so I imagine the piston is munching the bore of the cylinder

Try Fred Smith Automotive in Bayswater, VIC (9720 4999) he usually keeps the sleeved ones in stock.
He sources the Indian ones and sends them straight out to be re-sleeved.

On Sunday I had a chance to finally change the master cylinder. I opted for removing the pedal box rather than doing in situ. I test drove it for the first time today and realised how poor my clutch has been since i bought it :o. Much smoother now.
