gijohnny23 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 So I put an '83 280zx booster and 15/16 MC on the other day, during the install I lipped the checkvalve fitting in the bottom of master cylinder. Becuase of that I cannot get the brake line flare to seal properly. I'm getting a tiny bit of seeping around the threads every couple pumps. Is there any replacements available, we have no z's in the junkyard and I already tried to order replacements of Nissan parts, but they are discontinued. Any help? finding replacements. Also what degree of flare are the fittings? I have already tried to smooth out gouge but even with nice 2000 grit I couldn't make the bevel right perfect enough.

dexter72 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Did you check on Maximas in the junk yards around town???... Might have the same piece on them. Or another member may have a mastercylinder, that they can pull that part off for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gijohnny23 Posted December 18, 2013 Author Share Posted December 18, 2013 Yeah already checked those. I pulled the reservoir off an 84 d21 I don't know if its the same master or just the same res. if anyone is turning in a 15/16 mc for core I would pay if you pull the check valve fitting off and mailed I would appreciate it. If they replace them there has to be someone who manufactures them i just cannot find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gijohnny23 Posted December 18, 2013 Author Share Posted December 18, 2013 What I need is part 46051 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 See picture. What parts are you looking for? For what it is worth, I found that the master cylinder line fittings, rubber check valves and cone shaped pipe flange seats for the the 240Z, 280ZX and the Wilwood 1 inch MCs were interchangable. For example, when I did the Wilwood 1 inch MC swap I was able to use the fittings off of 240Z/280ZX MCs to allow attaching the 240Z 10mm x 1.0mm hardlines to the Wilwood MC. See Wilwood MC swap in the brake section. If you have rear disk brakes you don't need the rubber check valve. With these old cars you to be creative.

Miles Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 (edited) The MC fittings seem to be standardized so you may be able to find some other Nissan MC that you can part out. Edited December 18, 2013 by Miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gijohnny23 Posted December 19, 2013 Author Share Posted December 19, 2013 Like the one I turned in for core, before I decided to put the new one on. But I'll look around thank you for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
