I have a brake booster and master cylinder from a R32 clip. Im considering installing it into an old S30 chassis(zcar). It almost bolts into the firewall and the pedal linkage works. The master cylinder has a built in "proportioning valve". I was told it came from a GTR, but I think it may have been from a RB20DET equipped R32. The master cylinder looks like it was a Non-ABS equipped unit. It has 3 lines coming out of it. One is at a 45* angle. It apears that the rear 2 are the front left and right while the farthest forward is the rear brakes.

I would like to see if anyone has a clue as to what would be in the rest of the brake system. What valves would I be missing, etc. Id almost guess that there isnt anything else in the system other than the master cylinder.

Can anyone shed some light on what system I am dealing with?

Anyone have a diagram for that system and what components make it up?(or even a list)

If it will help I can post a picture of the unit.

Worse comes to worse I will bolt a S130 (82-83) master cylinder to the booster and use that. (the brake booster is far superior to the single diaphram that came on my Z) I need a larger cylinder to support the larger brakes Im going to install.

Thanks for any help you guys can supply

its might still be 32 gtr, there are only 3 lines from it (2x front, 1x rear). but ultimately there is nothing special it is just a master cylinder with a given diameter (11/16th from memory but you could confirm with a search in this section). Are there any markings on it, I can check part numbers if required.

not sure about other components I have never got around to removing the whole system at one time. the rear certainly has some mounting blocks but afaik it does not include proportioning valves.

if you are doing a custom setup (sounds very custom to me), I would use the master cylinder you have (assuming it is big enough for the caliper pistons you have), the booster you have, and an adjustable proportioning valve in the rear circuit to deal with any bias problem that turns up

you need a gq patrol cyl. 1 1/16" no prop valve bolts right up.

gtst is 15/16 gtr is 1" gtr with brembo is 1 1/16" bm50 gtst bm54 gtr bm56 brembo.

non abs cyl, front 2 are the front and the single one is the rear. abs has just 2 and differant prop valve.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
