Silvia slave cylinder question

northerner · #1 12-08-2010, 19:56

someone may have answered before but any other nissan models have the same slave cylinder ? According to Fast, no other models share the same part number. I've been on brakesint.com and other places for a new one as nissan are v.expensive, but no-one lists them any more...

i can still get them for cheap, tell me the size that is printed on your cylinder and i'll get you a price, i used an s14 one with the rb25 box, steve, did you get my pm about the rear subframe? i wanted to know how many mm you slotted it for the camber conversion.

I will check and get back.
I havent got a PM matey but from memory it was the same again as the bolt hole. As I was only going -30mm and would have only needed 2 degree's ish. If you going more than that I would add some more but be carefull as you would be going off the bottom of the standard bracket, if you see what I mean

do you know the thickness of the top and bottom of your bushes mate ?, i need to re-do my ally one as i din't make them in 2 halves, so my subframe is riding up on the drivers side and when i set off it sits down on the back and the body kit catches the wheel

.i think its sitting 10mm to low on the drivers side.

cant remember off the top of my head but its roughly 10/15mm

Seen as this thread has been hijacked already I'm going tohiack it for a mini-rant. WHy the hell can't I find a machine shop that an be arsed to make up a couple of brackets and slot those holes ? None of them seemingly can be arsed. How do these run a business with that kind of attitude ?
