Last night driving home i pretty much had no clutch... stopped and found no fluid.....

filled it up an pumped it for 10 mins and it came back.. thismorning looked in footwell and there is fluid leaking all the way down the pedal from the small black thing that surrounds the rod... if you get what i mean...

Now ive searched threads and stuff and couldnt find a clean answer...

what do i need to fix/replace regarding this leak... is it as simple as a couple of seals or do i need a whole new master cylinder?

New or reconditioned?

Brake and clutch specailist??

And finally how much is this going to set me back??

Thanks

Ed

yeah hi i have that same problem with my r32 you can buy seal kits for them but if you dont really know what your doing your best off just buying second hand

?

As far as im aware, they put in a new oversize cylinder, along with new seals. This costs about $270 from memory, but you need to wait for it to be done, then have the master cylinder put back in.

Or, do as i said, go buy a $70 new one. Two bolts inside the engine bay on the cylinder, and one clip on top of the clutch pedal. Not a hard task at all.

Never replace something worn out with second hand sheit. Asking for more trouble later....

    • Back on topic for you for a post Will it be on pump or ethanol? 2025 Spec RB build: G30 660 .83 would be good  artec manifold turbosmart 45mm external gate 1000cc Injectors Kelford cams 264 and springs Pistons and rods for insurance Oil pump with billet gears Headdrain and all good oil mods Quality intercooler 3.5 inch dump pipe to decent exhaust Link plugin Ecu or what ever your tuning is comforatble with Bolt on Trigger Kit - Nzwiring kit is go to ARP Headstuds Quality headgasket quality fuel pump- a TI/walbro 525lph PWM would be the go Quality fuel reg Will be over $15K AUD Enjoy the noise of rb on gate at over 7400rpm. Start looking for gearbox conversions if your hard on the gear. Now I've been there and done that with rb powered street car (2007-2022) much prefer newer stuff. Anything 90's Japanese is not a great experience these days and highly over rated. My 2015 Brz with a heap of suspension mods is such a better car even with out the power of my old s chassis' even on track. If wanting to play light chassis and decent power for a  giggle a k swap 86/brz would be the go Check my old build for engine stuff I really need to pay attention to post 2016 BMW stuff but seem all very heavy 1600+kg  
    • I mean, the 240i is not a Supra... make it drop a few hundred kg, have a sportscar chassis, clearance for wheels etc... Maybe I want a hardtop Z40i XDrive or something :p I do agree with you though and have long said the B58 Supra/240i/340i/440i is the new R Chassis/JDM90's turbo rocket for mod lovers to ... not always appreciative response lol. Doesn't make it not true though.
    • I will do the build myself but I will be paying for the tune because I don't know how much about that and would rather it be done right and by a professional 
    • Will you build and tune it yourself or do you need to pay for labour? 
    • Mechanically that's essentially what the M240i is, it's just not pretending it's not a BMW
