Nope...still my daily driver.
Took it to the track 5 times this year, though. Just passed 112,000 miles on my way to work this morning. I have a bad driver's side rear wheel bearing that I plan on replacing over the holiday weekend.

I can say with an amount of certainty that swapping the...
I did not need the PP master cylinder. Works just fine.
There may be a minute difference between the to, but to my experience, I can't tell if there is any greater effort with the non-PP master cylinder.
