Guys, I hate to say this but we have had multiple places we've sent parts to (new master and slave, clutch etc.) and they are only changing the slave, Shoving the master cylinder in the toolbox or something and not actually changing them! Mark the new master, Check it once you get your car back and ASK FOR YOUR OLD PARTS BACK before the work is done so they know you want them back!!

sounds like dateline (tv show) investigating jiffy lube and others.

Right... We had a recent customer that supposedly had everything changed we sent him, Had a sinking clutch pedal once he got it back from the shop, Called out the shop on the master (we told him the only thing that could possibly be causing that would be a bad or weak master) since it was supposed to brand new he checked further and found the original master still in the car.
The shop owner actually called me to verify the difference in the parts, Called out his tech (not sure if he still has a job)
Fortunately it was easy to do as this particular customer has a G37 which the master is slightly different in compared to the 370Z master we send with all the kits. Shop owner refunded customers money....
