On my one? Ill have to to have a look as don't really know

;) my cards are very close to my chest on this build

Yes but that is a totally different circumstance and not something I want to go into

Yes that's the one I will be selling in my garage. Spec list is kinda up to date but getting her back in the garage soon for more changes. I guess manual or auto really depends what you want from your sports car. They will both go fast. I would never get an auto sports car as I would want to do track work and fast road so an auto doesn't know what the road looks like so would be changing gear at the wrong time when I would hold out a little longer for say the next bend.

Mine will probably go up for sale one summertime once the retrim is complete. I will be holding out for the right buyer as as I know money seems to be tight for most so I am prepared to wait. There is still a few things I have to do but when I am done it will be some of my finest work. Engine as already been out and all cleaned up and parts deleted. Will most likely have the box off too for clutch change, one piece prop and NA subframe. A few body parts to change as well and then I will be happy that it is in top condition to sell :)

What I am meaning is its just a much more powerful set up therefore weak point is identified being this flex. That plus the big lever operating the pedal.

That's what you get with high performance brake upgrades. All done now though will post final video later. Also the brace wasn't touching hence the movement.

We have cracked it! The car is running with Ksports all round so serious braking power. Also ksport callipers have 2 bleed nipples on them. Went round doing the brakes again and it is better but not perfect so looked elsewhere then found this issue. The huge braking effort required is causing alot of flex in the master cylinder and servo so had a little bit of adjusting to do on the brace. After putting it back on have got reduced movement and a lot better feel of brakes on the pedal. Just going to tweak it up some more. This is the after video.

Looking at the brakes today and a look over the manual again. This is the BR 25 page I am looking at not that one above. Regardless I have no reason to suspect an ABS fault at current was just highlighting that the system if different on a 94+.

Of course it's Jap Slapper's brake problem though :D I'm just a travelling zed brain that just can't say no to helping out another zed owner. Supra and RB forums are the worst I have seen for helping out so I can agree with you on that.

That abs pump looks slightly different on the bottom half have you got like a plastic see through sight glass with an Allen key grub screw above it about 10mm? Servo is doing as it should. I am yet to look at this system properly will do Wednesday so I will have an answer then. I just had a quick look and identified differences on a 94+ system and was looking to find out if these changes have made differences to bleeding and why these modifications were made. I should make it clearer next time exactly what I'm after finding out. - - - Updated - - - That abs pump looks slightly different on the bottom half have you got like a plastic see through sight glass with an Allen key grub screw above it about 10mm?

There does seem to be an oil sight glass on the side though. Has anybody in this country had experience in brake bleeding a later zed to get air out of the abs area? If it is a self bleeding system it doesn't seem to be working. The only other way I have thought of doing it is like you do on diesel injectors high pressure side. Thats the original questions. Bleeding the system around the abs pump on a later model with no bleed nipples on the abs pump and the appearance of a sight glass on the side of the pump. Abs light is not staying on/blinking/flashing or anything else when I checked it yesterday indicating that the system is good. There is however no led on the control box which is interesting to note as it says there is in the manual. Still know nothing about the sight glass. Nothing confirmed about bleeding air out of the abs area and the only one to consider the diesel high pressure side injector type bleed on it is Znut I believe. Quickly get off topic these things.

The whole point of posting is to get someone with the same problem with same spec as there is someone on nico club that has been messaged with EXACTLY the same fault and spec. Various things I had already posted about with what information I had found. Point me in the direction of the experts that would know this abs I will pm them. Greg Dupree or Kyle Puckett maybe? I should have stated things a bit clearer in my first post of my mechanical background so that I don't get people asking if I've checked the fluid level or checked the abs fuse.

Some have. Others have cut and paste. Thread is making me dizzy going round and round. When I bleed the brakes on my millennium falcon I do it with the afterburners on at 4000 rpm.

No ill be on it Wednesday for a proper look and tinker. I just wanted to know the 94+ system and what changes were made as any monkey can read a manual and do it but not really understand what they are doing. Well almost any monkey. - - - Updated - - - No ill be on it Wednesday for a proper look and tinker.

Ok if you read the whole thread properly you will see that I said this in the first post as I know other systems on the later zed use dash lights instead of the old led's on boxes. Thing is though the online manual I read didn't confirm this and only mentioned a led blinker on the abs control box. You must have a 94+ manual. You will have to take a picture of yours so we can all see.

Ok this is my whole point how threads go in circles. Look on your 95 abs control unit do you have an led on the underside of it? I bet not so how are you going to do the diagnostics check? Air in liquid what does it do? Rises correct therefore air in oil what does it do it rises giving you air in the system and air that gets caught in wonderful places hence brakes struggle to bleed. Thanks for your points but I got it the first time you have bled yours it works.

Are they works equips? Look like VS i think it is. Caution

The system isn't bleeding hence the thread to try and get a 94+ confirmation on things. What I am really looking for is expertise that would confirm the make up of the 94+ abs pump and whether it is bled in anyway and the appearance of a sight glass on the side of the pump. I haven't had a go at bleeding it myself have just looked at the components on the car, read the usual information on the forums that go round in circles, looked at the service manual that doesn't acknowledge a different abs system (no bleed nipples on pump and no blink led on control unit) and then tried to find an answer to the question of what is the bleeding process for a 94+ zed before I waste time pumping oil round a system that may have a different bleeding process. I would therefore consider the fact that the system is not bleeding a little out of the ordinary and instead of pumping fluid round the system all day to no avail it would be better to consult somebody who has knowledge on this later model system to answer the questions so far. On nico club the same question was posed and for about 10 posts after that people kept on saying on have to bleed the 2 nipples on the abs pump. Hopefully one of the US gurus will get back to me on 300zxclub.com

Ok so as just as the manual states without even though it specifies to bleed the abs in the process. Ill let pez know that there is nothing wrong with the car or abs its just him. The issue that everything written on every forum in the world relating to this is not first hand knowledge and as this system doesn't seem to be doing as it should I am trying to find somebody who has bled the brakes on a 94+, has no bleed nipples on the abs pump and has no blink led on the control box. That way I have a direct comparison to work against and not a list of people saying how they bled their brakes on their zed. That information is day one week one stuff on vehicle mechanic course.

It's his zed ;) I'm looking at it and shedding more light on it.

Furthermore to this there is no blink code LED on the control box which it says in the manual which again I presume has now moved to use the abs light on the dash as the fault code blinker which I remember another system doing this on the zed.

Read this already and hence why I'm asking the Japan and USA networks as well. It is not a definitive answer on that link at all or an understanding of whether the system self bleeds or doesn't need to be bled around the abs area which is what I am asking for.

Just seeing if there is any knowledge in this country for this. I'm trying Japan and USA for info. Brake bleeding on a 95 300zx TT and there is no bleed nipples on the abs pump (see pics). Also in the FSM it does not even acknowledge that the 94+ Zeds have a different pump so cannot get information from there. There does seem to be an oil sight glass on the side though. Has anybody in this country had experience in brake bleeding a later zed to get air out of the abs area? If it is a self bleeding system it doesn't seem to be working. The only other way I have thought of doing it is like you do on diesel injectors high pressure side. Cheers Marty

Ill offer 100 ;) if they were for SWB of course
