720 Jason Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 my neighbor is/was a long time mechanic...but he recently had a stoke so i'm tring not to be visibly sceptical towards him, but.... I've got a 86' 720 (z24 engine) with no brakes. he thinks old Master Cylinder was from a 83' 280zx and is insisting on just getting the rebuild kit for that (an 83' 280zx). Ya still w/ me? I'd like to do what was suggested here and put in the correct MS and maybe booster too. I'd really like to know if MC's are interchangable w/ boosters of the same decade. I know this sounds crazy, but he's my neighbor. and my damn truck is parked at the bottom of his drive way. So I feel inclined to just let him do whatever to just get it back across the street, and behind my house so he can't see me fixing this later I'm at a loss. much like my beloved Car Talk, it seems fixing the car is the easy part. thanks again, -jason Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 Drive it into your back yard use the emergency brake. Look on the master cylinder. If it says 13/16" then it a 720 master. An '83 zx master has horizontal mounting bolts so won't fit the 720 booster. A '79-'81 zx master would fit (has vertical mount bolts just like the 13/16" 720 master) but it will say 15/16" on the side. Go out and look. This was already covered. 1 Quote Link to comment
