So I have gone through about 3 brake boosters on my full z32 conversion (brakes) and think I might finally have one that works. I got it off a manual maxima I found in the junkyard (boxy looking, 4cyl). It's an M195T like in the ABS s13's. It fits in the 240sx no problem with no clearance issues. What I am wondering is if it will work well with my z32 conversion, it is bigger than my stock non abs bb. The numbers on it read:

58E02 M195T
JKC 816-01115 9Y21 <----------Exactly

Thanks

If all else fails, install it and try it out :P No if it is larger than the stock one it should at least be closer to what you are wanting with the larger Z32 brakes.

Yeah I installed it and it seems slightly better than the stock one. I'm gonna go out and see how it performs now... be back later

I still don't understand the need for a larger booster unless you just like the assist feel. A larger master cylinder with the OE booster is fine for 99.9999% of owners.

Yeah it was just the feel I was looking for. With the stock booster there is a weird dead zone at first then it gets super stiff. I don't know what that's all about, or if that is normal but this new M195T seems to do the same thing but to a lesser degree.

what you can do is get a automatic brake booster from a s14 and a 300zx mc and it should work perfect trust me bro late

Isn't the auto brake booster the M195T and the 300zx the M215T?
