I've got one in the car, won't be using it, need to use the T56 slave cylinder.

Only issue is, it's at Brads in the car still.

You'll have to get there and unbolt it (Without pissing brad off on me, or dirtying the workshop :P )

Edit: Also make sure it's okay with Brad and doesn't muck up any of his plans...

haha all good matt and thanks! - will see what steve-o can do first, and the cost of the bore and new piston for modifying the stocker.

o0o0o t56 6 speed hey - hydrolic thrust engagement changes things up a bit

Having never driven on semi slicks before - do they have alot of road noise? like a whine sort of noise?

hope its just the tyres lol

either that or the 2 way is transfering alot of noise/vibration with the urethane bushes in the complete cradle

Chris, what was the need for having the slave bored out bigger? I know you need more fluid to be moved... Is it just because the friction point is too close to the floor? Cause you can alter this...

Edit: Just re-read and had a brain fart of a late night thought, had an epic long rambling post written... Then realised I was talking about the master cylinder not the slave...

I still have the Slave cylinder if you need it. Just speak with Brad in regards to grabbing it.

Oh, I also got those parts too, just need to fit them. Thanks heaps!

hahaha no problem, yeah bigger slave to lighten the pedal feel

will chat to the shop that did the brake kit and see how much it cost, we had that done to the 1jz 5 speed slave in the sprinter but i dont remember the costs.

Cable system FTW!!!!

haha what?

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
