upgrade but no front brakes


Recommended Posts

I have a 73 240z and upgraded to the Toyota calipers. Since then I have no front brakes. The brake pedal has good pressure but still no front brakes. I also replaced the master. I coukd use some advice.

Hmm you have good pedal pressure but your brakes dont work...? Did you put the pads in?

 

I'm assuming you bench bled your master, adjusted the rod out ( if you used a 15/16) at the same time making sure your reaction disc is in place, then bled ALL four corners making sure of no leaks.

 

A little more details of your problem would help.

Were the calipers used?

The pistons may be stuck.

FYI, you don't need to adjust the rod out on a '73 Z. Nissan switched to the later style booster that year, and it already has the longer nosed rod.
