Hi Jim,
Thank you for the prompt reply. The reason why I discovered I needed to replace the master cylinder the first place is because I took my car to dealership for brake flush. The mechanic that worked on the car told me it was leaking inside. I will follow your advice and stick with the same year master cylinder. I was wondering if you know a good place to get OEM or aftermarket unit? even a used one really... I really don't want to spend $300+ to get it from the local Acura dealership.

Thank you once again for your help.
Cindy
