I am looking to simplify my engine bay, and would like to delete my brake booster in favor of a different master cylinder / bias control.

i'm currently running 4 wheel Z32 brakes off of a 95 auto 240 MC.

anyone have any input or know how to figure out the diameter of a MC required (i would like to retain a stiff but managable pedal)?

personally I would find another way to simplify your engine bay manual brakes suck hands down

yeah, if your'e that hardcore about engine bay simplification, put it under your dash. I've seen setups like that. I highly recommend *NOT* getting rid of your brake booster.

The only person I've seen do it is Adam H on freshalloy. He did it to his race car that he runs up in canada.. He adjusted the lever arm to give him more leverage to make up for the additional force needed without the booster. Search around.. you should be able to find it.

^^^ thanks i knew i had seen it before but couln't remember who had moved the booster. it looks like it will be going behind the firewall instead of out completely.
