The VW ETKA I have shows 2 different master cylinders for '92 Jetta, but does not list them as engine-specific.

The first listed is p/n 191 611 019, for vehicles #1G-L-028 210 and before.
The other m.c. is p/n 357 611 019, for vehicles #1G-L-028 211 and later.

Judging by the catalog on the site of (a nameless :roll: ) online parts retailer in Wisconsin, the 357 611 019 may well have been the most common of the two Jetta master cylinders for 1992, with the replacement units commanding various prices from around $28. to $82.

Hope that helps a bit.

From what I've found out by looking, is there's two different bore diameters available for the master cylinders. Not sure how you'd equate that to a GTI or diesel or any other model designation though. Otherwise, they may interchange, just one may require more or less foot pressure to operate the brakes.
Everybody else lists their cars here - but not me.

I have too many to count

Often, with the later MK2s they started using parts that were used on the early MK3s.
Like your steering rack probably fits a MK3.
'91 Golf gasser converted to a 12mm pump, M-TDI.
'84 1.6TD Rabbit with a VNT-15 turbo, still setup to run on vegetable oil.
'84 GTI with 1.7TD pistons and intercooled.
2003 TDI wagon
2000 TDI Jetta.
