topped up the resevoir with fluid without doing a full bleed (think it might need to be done but i was lazy) warmed car up then turned it off, put foot on brake and started it and felt no change.... how could have booster gone bad just from a master cylinder upgrade is my question? Is it possible that taking the cylinder out of the booster to glue the reaction disc had an effect? pedal feels a bit better but i have a sneaking suspicion that its because a bleed needs to be done

I pulled the rod and reaction disc out and glued the disc in place as per the faq.... would the rod adjustment being wrong create a hiss or is that just from the booster failing?

is it possible the boot on the back end (boot thats behind the pedal) has something to do with it? might have messed that up

Thanks for the response! The pedal has been making a bit of a hissing noise since the upgrade.... the booster was working fine before the install of the new master cyl (or at least i didnt have these problems....), check valve hasnt been touched. going to bleed brakes then do this test today then check mc push rod, are there common areas where the booster can leak from? is it possible that something broke in the booster when i installed the new master? Thanks again!

Just upgraded to wilwood dynalite calipers, have an 8.5" booster, and put the wilwood 1" mc in and now my pedal is hard as a rock barely any travel...have to hit the pedal super hard to get brakes to work. Thought it was getting softer and better then realized one of the resevoirs had emptied ( which i beleive ive now remedied..) is it supposed to be this hard? for people whove done caliper upgrades is it worth switching down to a 15/16 to get a better pedal or what? Thanks

as the title says looking for a front triangulated strut brace for a 73 240z. located in nj let me know what you got!

i can make them out of steel, not aluminum, price would depend on thickness / demand but i can probably get a few made between 120-200 depending on thickness / finish. message me for details edit: for clarification, would be laser cut just the flat pattern

hopefully ill have some brackets to mount wilwood calipers back from the machine shop within a month or so would be willing to sell for a good price

have a few pairs too if others are interested

i have a pair! message me can send pics and details

I actually found a dimensioned drawing for what i mostly was interested in but would still be interested in the spindle of a 240z.... would be nice to have for designing brake upgrade parts

https://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PROD/15-6030 this, shipped to nj

message me i might be able to help you get one done if you need...

is the turbo manifold still available?

havent seen that before, quite light it tbh

Anyone have cad files for the 240z? would love to have the hubs / suspension parts to maybe design some bake upgrade brackets, would also like an engine bay layout to maybe work on routing some lines in cad etc anything would help! thank you

https://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PROD/classic02m20/33-1190 this plastic thing, just need the cover dont need the wires and all the other lighting stuff

shipped to either nj or nc lmk what you got thank you!

open to any kits for the right price.... mostly looking for the larger toyota set up up front, open to reasonably priced options for the rear as long as it retains e-brake shipped to 07078 - NJ Thank you!

tried sending pm wouldnt let me for some reason.... interested in the brakes if you could message me!!!

I have a single 3 screw su i believe id be willing to part ways with just for the cost of shipping as it was given to me for free and I wouldnt mind passing the love on to a fellow Z owner, dont know if this will help but if it does shoot me a message

random question but does anyone know if this could find its way onto a 240z with a vintage air kit? currently just have my idle higher in the summer then lower it in winter but would love a better solution to this...

i have drilled and slotted rotors up front as well. im starting to suspect something else is up...?

im running porterfeild r4-s compound all around, bled the system and it has good dot 4 in it, although i might do that again and put new bleeder valves in just to be sure
