Order correct rebuild kit. Part number for 2000 US model w/ ATRAC is 04493-60330
[edit 6/2018 - this part number is correct for all US 100s. Checked with @beno and while online it will only be listed for 2003-2007, its correct for all US 100s.]
Kit is around $50, so a bunch cheaper than ~$1500 Master Cylinder Assembly. Rebuild will not fix everything, but for the price it is worth a shot. Brake fluid, think I used around 2 qts.
Would be a good idea to have FSM, since this is written assuming you have it.
Tools: 10mm flare wrench, 3/8" socket set w/ 12mm deep socket, long 3/8 extensions, 3/8 u-joint. Brake bleed kit, torque wrench, usual hand tools...
Photos are 2000 LC w/ ATRAC
Would be good at this point to pump pedal 40 times with key off. Will release pressure in high pressure accumulator and return some fluid to reservoir. Don't turn key back on until you have MC out or you will re-pressurize it.
Remove driver side lower dash, has a few layers, plastic skirt, sheet metal plate, plastic heater duct.
After removing dash components it should look like this photo. (green arrow shows one of the nuts for ABS ECU bracket)
