Jochen Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Hi Guys, it seems that my brake master is gone, at least the fluid chamber is broken until the winter. So now I am looking for a new one, and have seen that there are different ones for sale depending on the year the car is build. Do I have to take the one for a 1970 240Z or can I use also one for the older 240Z models what are of course much more expensive... Thanks for a short information!

johnc Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 There are two different bolt patters for the 240Z brake booster. The early cars had the bolts spaced horizontally by 80mm. Later cars (I don't know the cutoff) the spacing is 100mm. Your car has the early 80mm spacing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamo3 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Joe, Are you looking for Brake master cylinder or booster(Master vac)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jochen Posted August 1, 2012 Author Share Posted August 1, 2012 Hey, My "problem" should be the master cylinder or just the fluid tanks ontop of the master cylinder. Until the winter something is frozen (I guess there was water in the break fluid Tanks), and the brake fluid came out and runs down the inner fender/frame... I have to check if just the Tanks are broken, or if the seals are also damaged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evildky Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 A master from a series 2 chassis will work but the lines are reversed and you'll have to persuade them into place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
