ezzzzzzz Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Before you swap out the booster be sure the check valve is installed properly. If it's backwards no vacuum will get to the booster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psdenno Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Does your engine RPM rise when you step on the brakes? If so, it's a sign of a bad booster. Changed mine last month. Dennis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezzzzzzz Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I installed a 280Z booster in my 240Z when I went for a bit more brake assist. It was relatively simple. It only required drilling new holes for the wider stud pattern. There is enough room to accommodate this booster and still replace the clutch MC, if needed. http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=114954&highlight=booster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
