no you dont need to move it just to fit new front calipers or discs and pads,if your doing a rear conversion then obviously you would need to remove the pipes etc....,which if you do decide too remove the lot then get hold of an xr3i master cylinder because it doesnt have the pipe holders that come out the side of it that go to the abs system!
