If you have the model with the universal adapter, it's hard to stop the leaks but it can be done. You really have to crank down on the chains to get it tight.

The Nissan specific adapter fits in place of the normal reservior cap and it doesn't leak pressure at all.

 

Per the place I talked too they said there was no specific adapter for Nissans and we had to use the Universal. GRR!

 

I have a quick question I'm planning to do the same thing to my car (swap the stock brakes to the OEM brembo brakes) do they only come in red or do they have gold/bronze ones aswell?????? cause to paint them is a pain.

Get #0107 for the Z (Nissan).

 

The OEM Brembos for the Z are gold. OEM Brembos for some other cars are red, i.e. Mitsubishi WRX.

 

I'm thinking of doing this swap on my friends' base 2007 Z. Do you guys think there will be any issues?

 

Other than the bleeding issue, it's a pretty straight forward process.

 

Cool thanks!

 

[QUOTE=SuperBlack350z]this was how mine felt when i used the OEM non brembo master cylinder. Right away after i installed my brembo master cylinder that i obtained from the dealer, the feeling felt normal again and the pedal was short.

Does anyone knows of the Brembo Brake Booster spec? Can it be adapted to the non-brembo master cylinder?

 

Edited: Already covered.

 

107 fits right on the Z

 

[QUOTE=35Z;5893855] so pissed just passssed 6 hours installing my brembos everything went smooth I don’t have a pressure system but I had my friend pump 5 times then keep it down! I did the right sequence and bled it 3-4 times!

My pedal feels likes manure! Nobody covered the braked booster issue? Is it the same part?

Do I need to go under my car again and pump away like crazy 10 more times?

the reason I ask is because I don’t see how air would get stuck near the booster since I changed one caliper at a time

 

It has nothing to do with the booster. Once you disconnect a line, air gets into it and bubbles work their way back up into the ABS pump.

As I described above, I bled mine over and over and it was still soft. As soon as I used the pressure bleeder, a couple of huge air bubbles came out when bleeding the fronts.

 

More reason why I took mine to the shop to get my Brembos installed. They always do it right -- the first time. I just didn't have the time nor the tools to DIY. Once installed, you'll be happy with the swap, especially if you like to track your car.

 

stupid question, a pressure bleeder is better then 2 ppl and the push peddal trick?

if so i will order one right away!

 

Anything is better than the 2 person push pedal trick.

I guess because the power bleeder keeps a continuous pressure and flow of fluid through the system, it is better in getting the trapped bubbles out. Even with the power bleeder hooked up, it's not a bad idea to go push the pedal occasionally to make sure the master cylinder is bled too.

 

i hope canadian tire has this, i cant stand my car anymore! lol

btw i will post pics of where i got my brembos later tonight...u have to see this

 

they dont ship to canada!!!! want to sell me yours????

 

do i need the motive power bleeder to successfully bleed the master cylinder? i must have spent an hour bleeding and the pedal is still a bit soft....yay for me, gotta do it again OR buy the motive bleeder!
