so how DID you push it back like that? The other thing I believe you can do to fit a straight neck in is 1) flip the TB upside down, but that looks silly and causes other problems, or 2) get a different master cylinder w/ the brake line attachments on the OTHER side, I think the probe/mx6 are setup like this...but I dont know if the brake booster is compatible w/ it.

i used the stock master from the mx3, the probe and mx6 masters are very long.
