With the one inch MC you will notice that it takes more pedal force to stop the car. If you are going to larger calipers on the front then you will be all set. Even with the one inch MC you may still notice longer pedal travel before the brakes engage after you install larger front calipers. It is kind of a domino effect when modifying brake systems.

Some after market master cylinders do not have the large reservoir in front. As long as the master cylinder is correct in all other aspects then it doesn't matter. You can always swap the front reservoir from the old master cylinder onto the new one for a "stock" appearance.

You sure that the top wire goes into the engine? May have originally connected to the fluid level sensors in the MC tanks.

Please let us know what MSA says.

Work logically. The first question I ask people with a sudden electrical problem is: what was the last thing you did just before the electrical problem occurred? For example, a guy with a 240z kept blowing a fuse for the side marker and dash lights every time he turned the lights on. He just kept replacing the fuse each time this happened. So I asked him: "what was the last thing you did to the car before it started blowing fuses?" He replied "I removed the right rear marker light and replaced it" Turned out he mixed up the ground and power wires so each time he turned on the lights there was a dead short in the lighting circuit.

What car 240z, 280z etc? Any wiring modifications? Re-install the original fuse box to see if it behaves the same way which will eliminate the new fuse box as the problem. You could pull one fuse at a time to isolate the problem to a specific circuit and then go from there. A call to MSA may help. Kinda depends on which MSA tech you get.

Yes. I used an AN flex line and adapter to eliminate the bridge tube. See photo.

When I was considering rewiring one of my 240Z cars, I researched EZ wiring. There are a bunch of tutorials on HybridZ and other Z sites. I recall one member made a pdf wiring list that showed the brake wire connections. The brake lights are actually controlled through the T/S switch. For example, when making a right turn the T/S switch disables the right brake light etc. Some HybridZ links: https://forums.hybridz.org/search/?&q="ez wiring"&type=forums_topic&search_and_or=or&search_in=titles&sortby=relevancy

Looks like you have the correct sensor. The sensor could be defective.

Sounds like you have altered the stock wiring. So the following may or may not help you, but may serve as a process of elimination as you trace your electrical problem. Possibilities: Wrong oil pressure sensor? A wiring alteration is energizing the oil pressure sensor circuit when the ignition switch is in the start position and then de-energizes when the switch is released to run mode. Check the ignition, fuel pump and starting circuit wires. Check the circuits that have been altered to see if they have been cross connected to the oil pressure sensor. Test: connect a volt meter to the yellow and black oil pressure sensor wire. Note what the volt meter does as you turn the ignition switch slowly to each position on the switch. This will narrow down which wires to inspect. Look at/test these wires at each position on the ignition switch : Yellow-black - oil pressure sending unit Black-white (without protective sleeve) - tach terminal on HEI distributor Black-white (with protective sleeve) - battery terminal on HEI distributor Black-yellow - S terminal on starter Black-blue - energizes the fuel pump while cranking (260z and 280Z only). Note: 240z uses a green-white wire to run the fuel pump while cranking (energized just before start position on ignition switch. This is just a starting point. You have some detective work ahead of you.

Check your wiring to the oil pressure switch, oil pressure safety switch etc. If you followed JTR then your pressure switch and oil pressure safety switch should look like the attached picture. Post the wire list you used for the oil pressure switch etc and where each wire is connected.

Do a Google search of Hybridz.org: Copy and paste into the Google search window: site: hybridz.org "brake upgrades"

Read the brake FAQs and search the brake forum. Also search the internet by typing "240z brake upgrades". Note: stock brakes are fine

I was going to suggest you contact Randy, but I no longer have his contact info. He used to advertise on Sacramento Craigslist.

Would that be Randy of Citrus Heights?
