Clutch Master Cylinder Booster Delete

Hey guys. First post.

I've done a lot of reading and checking on pretty much every forum I can find, and I have yet to stumble across anyone who has completely gotten rid of the clutch vac booster.

Plenty of people running without her hooked up, but no one has bothered to delete the booster altogether and replace the master.

The idea is to delete the booster, install an after market clutch master with a remote res fitting, and use the brake master res to feed the clutch.

That would tuck that clutch master into the firewall, and eliminate the res.

Just wondering if anyone has any info whatsoever, or am I going to be the first to adapt a 300zx TT (or GTST) Clutch slave to remote type non-boosted?

Would seem like it would be no real problem to mount a RWD car's clutch master onto the firewall.  In fact, if I do recall, it's not that long since this was last discussed on this very forum.  Some better searching will probably yield results.  The changes are likely to be needing to drill different holes in the firewall, needing a different length clutch rod, needing to change the clutch hard pipe or replace with braided line.

The benefit of getting rid of the reservoir would seem to me to be nil, and far more hassle and mess than it's worth.  What were you planning to do?  Drill a hole in the side of the brake master's reservoir, poke in a bit of hose, hot melt glue it in place and stick the other end into the top of the clutch master with some bubble gum?  I can't think of an elegant way to do it.

Yuh....but how are you going to connect that to the inlet on the clutch master where the reservoir gets ripped off?


The idea would be to find a Wilwood master that has a threaded insert in place of the res.... then I can just tap that.

Go to page 11 if the link doesn't take you straight there. I haven driven with it yet so can't comment on how well it works. 


Which master cylinder are you using with that, and where did you buy the adaptor from? I can't find it

I'm pretty sure it's just a GTS-T master cylinder.  If you read my post later on there is some chat about a forum member (from NZ) that makes them.  You can send him a PM or search for Garage 101 (Perth) on Facebook.  That's where I got mine.  They send theirs with a master cylinder.

      Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.

      Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.

      Howdy all,   I had my rb25det S2 rebuilt and finally started it today but have run into a few issues  Engine sounds like a a diesel easiest way to summarise like small ticking, gets louder when revs are slightly adjusted  The engine builder repainted the engine cover leaving no where for me to go off with lining up the CAS so have it as central as possible so not sure it that could be affecting it?, changed the gearbox fluid too but won’t seem to go into gear when running, and only 1 to 4 when off having a hard time finding 5th and reverse anyone got any ideas or a base for me to start off? much appreciated
