1. Does anyone know a part number / vehicle that I can get a 1" master cylinder off that fits the R30 booster?

Update: Number 1 is not an issue anymore. After a bit of work with some vernier calipers, it appeared that the Patrol master cylinder (which wasn't supposed to fit) may actually work. I took a spare brake booster back to my friendly brake specialist and checked. Bugger me, it fits! It is snug, but with a small adjustment to the actuating rod (which is adjustable) we will have a goer. The only issue is that one of the brake line outlets on the master cylinder is in a different spot, coming out the front rather than the side. Not a real issue as I am putting the new brake lines in it.

So, anyone got those rear brakes?

Cheers,

Matt

Matt,

Before you go jumping in buying the Patrol master cylinder, may I suggest you take a sample of the old 7/8 master cylinder to your friendly old brake parts place and he look up his picture referrence, because a TOKIKO brand 1" master cylinder is available in this country, exactly the same configuration as your standard 7/8 version.

The parts list only shows the 7/8 number, but as I said, take your old to the parts house and theyt will have a picture and cross referrence for the 1" version. I have asked one of my local brake specialists to help us out with a part number for you, but as yet have not got an answer.

As for rear callipers, you just gunna have to source them, as they are becomming a bit like "Rocking Horse Sh!t" extremely difficult to find, but .............. in my usual style I have been able to locate a complete rear end minus the diff & drive shafts (half shafts) that's rear cross member, trailing arms, hubs and brakes and am waiting for a price.

If your interested maybe you might want to PM me for this information.

Cheers,

Dennis

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
