Just to add a little more data to the thread, I have an October 2016 (not 2017) wagon. It has the 27mm master cylinder.

It must be only the very last of the 4 corner brembo cars that got a smaller master. When I rang Holden to source a new one, all that was available was the smaller one but that was some te after production stopped.

Or, only 4 corner brembo Ute's got the smaller master seeing all the above examples are sedans or wagons.

VF II SSV Redline Ute
My Motorsport edition, built September 2017, also has a 27mm brake master cylinder.
Anyone got a late '17 build SSVR ute to check master cylinder size? Did the HSV cars typically have a 27mm also does anyone know?

I looked up the BOM of the first Magnum (Media release cars 2019), the brake master cylinder was the same as my redline. The part must of changed sometime in the last year of manufacture as my Director has a different part number for the brake master cylinder.

Yes but then there was just smaller bore masters in the big bore boxes.
The part number was also superseded.
Hence all to confusion I had when ringing around for a new one and the issues another member on here had when he trying to locate one too.

27mm on all the HSV cars or with 6 spot front calipers, GTS etc?
2017 build Clubsport with LSA and 4 pot calipers was what I saw it on
