hi cassbo

some wag suggested maybe your firewall has flexed a loooong way on previous track days hence the closeness of the fit.

i would make sure you give a bit of a tighten up and check it regularly for the first few weeks in case there is any truth to this rumour and the firewall moves back a bit. :banana:

is there any method to setting these things up? you don't need one person in the car and one person installing do you??

Just remove the plastic bits covering the recessed holes on the strut tower, attach the plate, put in the bolts and tighten, screw in the bolt against the master cylinder with the flange on the end. After driving check the bolts again later if they need further tightening. Based on what I've read on other forums in regards to brake stopper installation.

My main question is how tight to press up against the master cylinder? even when tightening the big bolt all the way there's a tiny bit of play between then MC and the bolt flange. Should this be pressed right up against the MC?

I've noticed the difference under heavier braking. At the moment my brakes have been quite soft (almost having to put pedal to floor sometimes, it's booked in for new rotors n pads this week and a check of the braking system) but meanwhile this master cylinder has given more confidence with braking the way that it currently is.

If you open the bonnet, put one foot in the car pressing down on the brake (with the car on) and have a look at the movement of the master cylinder you can see how much flex there is. I was quite suprised with mine actually.

almost out of stock until the next lot are made which is approximately 4-6weeks. there may be only one or two left.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
