    I am sick of brakes

    Yeah I checked the gasket it was good... So all that is left is the boot and instead of buying it i just sealed the master cylinder to the booster with some silicone... It probably isn't the best idea should it start leaking again... but I will deal with it should the day come.

    I am sick of brakes

    Okay I got everything figured out... The new master cylinder stopped the brake fluid leak, I couldn't bleed right because there was a hole in my bleeder hose next to the bleeder nipple, and the air was because I have no dust boot to go around the neck of the master cylinder so it "appears" it is...

    I am sick of brakes

    Well I got pissed off last night because air was leaking out of the bottom of where the master cylinder attaches to the brake booster and I couldn't bleed the brake line. But this morning the brake fluid level wasn't any lower than I left it last night so I am guessing the brake leaking stopped...

    I am sick of brakes

    Ok as a header to this, when I bought my car the first thing I did was replace the front brake hoses and rebuild all four calipers. Followed by replacing the master cylinder. Now, my master cylinder is leaking brake fluid and every time the brake is pressed I hear air leaking out of where the...

    Hello

    Oh... and another thing I forgot to mention... I am somewhat obsessed with the idea of custom painting (not exterior but engine wise) so keep a look out for changes from here in the engine compartment.

    Bit of a vacuum question

    Sweet, got everything back together and it runs. Only things different are: 1. The 17650 vsv is missing the plug on the left hand side so i plugged it up with a short hose and a screw... and the brown plug going to it i could not find but it was not hooked up to begin with 2. The 17630 valve...

    Hello

    While it is currently being worked on (vacuum troubles), here is my new family member. It has 218k on the body and just got a JDM motor 20k ago... (I almost wish the original motor blew on me so I would have an excuse to do a turbo swap) I plan on eventually doing one but after a bit and some...

    Bit of a vacuum question

    LOL... ok i figured it out... The guy that did the engine swap.... Swapped the hose that split the heater and CC with the one that goes into the vacuum regulator... So he had the vsv hooked up to the back of the manifold. Alright I am confident in what needs to happen now... Thank you again

    Bit of a vacuum question

    Alright I got everything hooked up except for one thing I cannot find in any diagram. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/burnedkitty105/MA8829Bb.jpg Oh and how important is the valve that goes to the intake? Mine is busted on the intake side and will have to get a new one after a bit. And...

    Hello

    89 N/A Auto... I know kinda boring, but with the condition of the car I couldn't pass up $1800 dollars. A buddy of mine told me they are money pits. I have found this to a degree but when I have more time than money you find new and inventive ways to fix old stuff rather than replace it. I...
