Hey guys,

I noticed brake fluid coming out between the master cylinder and it's 'booster pack' behind it. It's all over the 'booster pack' plastic and runs down under the car before dripping off. Anyone seen this problem before? It's not a massively fast leak, something I hadnt noticed until today when my fluid level was low for no apparent reason.

I dont seem to notice extreme brake fade and can't make fluid come out under pressure... I don't have much experience with master cylinders and dont know if it's a simply seal or easy fix?

Anyone had this problem before?

Cheers in advance.

what your describing sounds like you need to replace brake master cylinder seal, grab the R32 GTR service PDF off the net it will show you step by step how to do it..

master cylinder seals usually don't go on their own, usually means you've got air or dirt in your brake lines, or you've mixed 2 fluids together which werent compatible when topping it up in the past

Bought a new seal kit from nissan, when mine was leaking more than usual. They wear out from age too.

Check the bore when you pull the old assy out to check for scoring, damage etc, clean with new brake fluid and use a brake rubber grease if you have some, on the new part before you refitt. Then go a full brake and abs bleed.

Mine stopped leaking after that, and I also cleaned, primed and resprayed the areas where the brake fluid leaked onto/under when I was rebuilding my engine (easy access).
