alright, what is the difference of an MC that costs $25 (brakeware) and another MC that costs $70 (nabaco) and the same with slave cylinders...

is there a difference, or is it all just brand name that makes it $45 more??


or does the term "you get what you pay for" come to account?

You do get what you pay for. Cheap people pay more in the long run. I would go with the name brand nabco/tokico seeing as the 240sx's used those brands. If you dont go with a name brand you could end up getting a bmc that's pourous and will leak brake fluid through the cylinder over time. seen it before. I have a couple for sale though. what are you looking for?? what application?

I've had a cheap Master cylinder crap out on me.

As for the slave, put it this way, I used the Nabco Nismo one that came with my front clip for years. No problems. Japan to USA, sitting for who knows how long on the tranny with no movement, still worked with no issues.

agreed the nabco is the way to go. I also used the cheap one and it last all of 3 months of heavy driving, replaced it with the nabco and no problems since. Also I have used it on 3 different motors (sr,sr,rb) and still runnin strong. do it right, once
