They will be standard parts I'm sure mate. Might have been different on the GTR, but the GTX shares most of its components with BG 323s.

they are slightly different from memory, but are interchangable and work the same.

The clutch master cylinder for the BG 323 fits perfectly on the 91' familia GTX but the slave cylinder is a different part all together. Of course this makes perfect sense, being a turbo 4wd gearbox and all. Shall get to the bottom of that this week, maybe a TX3 part will suit?? (or maybe sprint auto gave me the wrong part.. possible)
What a massive job to get at the Clutch slave cylinder!! I had to remove the friken' front engine mount!!
Good times

Sounds like fun. The slave on fwd is easy as piss! The tx3 4wd box would probably be the same. Try searching Ford laser.com

the slave is different becasue of the difference bellhousing it bolts to.

yes a 4WD TX3 'turbo' slave will fit. hit up ford for one.

SO!.. after checking out photos of various parts off ebay etc. It turns out Sprint Auto gave me a 99~2003 323 clutch slave cylinder and the one I pulled off the car looks exactly like the part I asked for, the 91' 323 cylinder.
Ah well. Money refunded. Lessons learned.
