Help with brake booster
 

I have decided I do not want brakes anymore so I need to get rid of the booster :D Cant figure out how the hell it is mounted on, and the book doesnt help much eather... Please help me.. Thanks in advance..

Remove the master cylinder from the booster if you want. You don't really need to but I do for clearance. If you're engine isn't in the car then don't sweat it. But anyways, you should be able to locate the two nuts securin the brake master cylinder under the dash near where the top of the brake pedal is. You'll also need to disconnect the brake pedal from the booster as well. Thats it.

I meant the two nuts securing the booster under the dash.

I accidentally put brake master cylinder on the underdash part.

how you gonna stop flinstones style

yeah... brakes are old news now. The newest fad is to just hit something...

Use the car in front of you to slow down... it's amazing how much longer your pads will last. It's a little hard on the front bumper, so you may want to install one of those patrol car type ramming gates on the front.;)

YES! Then you can do the "pitman move" to somebody on the freeway!

Sometimes when I'm on the freeway, I get the urge to just crank the steering wheel and see what happens... Is that wierd? :eek:

haha, this thread is cracking me up.

We S130 drivers are a hoot and a half!

Hey man, your not alone on that one. I sometimes have asked the same question. It is kind of stupid, but I still think it. But then I look at the reality sense, and don't think about it as much. I mean that would be friggin' crazy to be going at a high speed, and suddenly get the urge to crank the wheel. :eek: I would say I'd be in for a world of hurt! ;) I thought I was one of the few that has thought that way! :rolleyes:

Sry to add some Z32 to this thread, but, I've also thought of that....pretty crazy, you would have to be really insane, or just a big fan of pain. Could you just imagine? :eek:

NO I really don't want to try to imagine! ;) And yes here would come the pain, and if you survived, can we say $ signs up to yin yang! :eek: And as long as you don't have a 350z. :rolleyes: It's cool with me, sorry if I offended any new 350z owners. ;) Just stating my opinion. :D

Thanks for a good mornings laugh and the answer.. My stupid ass was looking all arounf the booster in the enginebay.. kinda forgot the booster was connected to the pedal.. oh and I am really removing it to paint it redo the seals and leave it removed to have the engine bay painted whr the rest of the car gets painted :D

I see a turbo in those pics! :eek:

Where I dont see nothin??? :confused: :p

I had a psycho girlfriend once reach over and grab the steering wheel and yank it while going down the freeway at about 75... "just to see what would happen". It wasn't pretty, but my old BMW 635 CSI hung pretty tough... after a couple ugly 360's I got it pointed the right direction again without hitting anything. Got the attention of the other drivers on the road though. Scared the crap outta me. We broke up shortly after that... go figure.:rolleyes:

I woulda kicked her ass outta my car & left her on the freeway!

YEAH!!! What hhheeeee /\ /\ /\ said!! Only woulda found time to do it while we were spinning and watch her go flying!! :D

Actually, the final straw came a few weeks later, when she wrapped that beautiful/fast/sexy 635 around an oak tree. I owned that car for a total of two months.:mad: As soon as I found out she was OK, I got rid of her:p . Picture 1= The car she killed, Picture 2= It's replacement:) .

Funny thing about Porsche's... Lot's of people can afford to buy one, Very few can afford to own one.;)
