you can also try an undersized 6-sided allen tool

I jacked one master cylinder trying with an undersided 6 side.

This is what I eventually did..and it worked.

Take some oil, and lube the sides of the screw where the threads are..make sure it doesn't go into the hole and lubricate that. Take an allen, match it up to find out how much you need to grind, and grind away until you get something that's at least closer to a 5 sided tool than 6.

Then pound that sucker in there. When you think it's tight enough, pound it some more with a bigger hammer. Then pound it some more for good measure. Then turn and pray to god you don't strip the hole :)

LH drill bit...

id try maybe a dremel...make it into a flat head so u can screw it out.

or just take it to a nissan dealer and go back to where the mechanics are. they are usually pretty helpful.

You could try using an undersized 6 sided (throw away) allen, then JB weld it in the hole....then unscrew. Just be careful it doesnt get outside the hole.

OR

Do that the last guy suggested, take it in to a Nissan dealership and ask them to do you a favor.
