Has anyone also upgraded the brake booster and master cylinder?

I been investigating this for the s2 stag with r34gtt calipers etc all round.

Some advise they get softer pedal feel or abs doesn't activate like it used to.

Suggestions i've seen are to go the r34gtt brake booster/master cylinder also, 

however they both quote BM50... So whats the diff? is the booster different?

(the only physical difference looking at pics online seems to be the reservoir)

Cheers,

Pete

My memory is going but I believe when I up graded to GTT brakes I kept the stock M/C and booster which was  fine for the job. When I fitted D2 330mm brakes to the front and GTR brakes to the rear I changed the master cylinder (kept the stock booster IIRC)  to BM57 with no ill effects (pulled up straight at high speeds on the track).

And I'm running 32 GTR rear and ATTKD 330mm/8 piston fronts with the standard booster and master cylinder without pedal issues.

What problem are you trying to solve? Because mushy/long pedals almost always come down to bleeding or sometimes pad break in

Thanks Duncan and Bob.

1-2cm extra pedal travel, a tad soft compared to original.

Previously could just rest / weight of my foot on brake pedal to start pulling up. 

Does the much same after swap, but needs a bit extra pressure applied.

Not triggering abs like used to, which was quite easy previously. 

Doesn't feel spongy/sloppy, pulls up a lot better than original setup.

I've bled all calipers, cleared any air bubbles.

Maybe i do the bleed procedure again. RL, RR, FL, FR

Wish to get it back to where it was with just lightest of pedal push.

Cheers,

Pete

 

My pedal is also soft, using the r33 f+r setup. It's pretty normal for this to happen when using bigger/more pistons.

I was going to get a bm57 like most people do, but for the money i've learnt to live with it.

 

It's up to you, Pete. If it annoys you that much get a bm57, if not just let it go and you'll soon forget about it, till you drive a properly setup car... or a new car :P

    • Clutch done also about a year ago got a DCS HD Single Plate. Basically done everything but touch the engine 🤣 But will definitely get a fuel pump and ECU, then start saving 🫡
    • Fuel pump and clutch and ecu that’ll get you to about 230 or so kw, after that the sky’s the limit and the budget blows out faster then you can blink 
    • Should add all mods on the car are done in my ownership. The car was a 1 owner in Japan and I'm first owner in Aus.
    • Thanks GTSBoy. Did BC's so not Japanese coilovers. I've already done all the other points you mentioned besides the seat, I like the factory seats and want to keep original look. Done all the fluids and comp tests etc and all consistent and clean. Well and truly used to the power and car as I've been driving it for a few years as it is now. Contemplating next steps mainly. Preference to remain twins too. @Murray_Calavera Paying for labour.
    • Hmm. I don't think it is possible. As soon as you start, you will be on the hook for all the money. $5-10k is enough to make it fragile. Here's the list of things you need to do to make it nice, and driveable. If Japanese coilovers, get them measured and tested, then decide if you're keeping them or replacing them. If low rate springs, then consider big ARBs. If high rate springs, then probably leave stock ARBs. Either way, ad decent end links. Replace and/or upgrade all suspension bushes. That's LCAs front and rear, UCAs & traction arms at rear, caster rods at front. I highly recommend GKTech FUCAs, although the step to spherical joints is a step too far for some people. Rebuild brakes front and rear. This means making sure the calipers are healthy, discs are up to thickness, hoses are replaced with braided. Add good pads and fluid. Investigate wheel bearings all the way around, tie rod ends all the way around, upright bearings at the front, balljoints everywhere. Any of these that are still original are likely to be a bit wibbly nowadays. Bride or Recaro driver's seat, with fairly deep sides. Nice tyres. Street performance wheel alignment. Or track focused, if you're not going to use it on the road. Fluids everywhere if not known to be fresh. Now, learn to drive the car as hard as it will go, before trying to add any power. Save up big $$. $5k is the minimum cost for putting a decent ECU into it. A big single, with manifold, new exhaust, injectors, fuel system upgrade, ignition upgrade, triggering upgrade, etc, is >>$10k. None of that (except the ECU) is a good idea on an old RB. You really should put head studs in it, investigate engine health (compression and leak down, real oil pressure at revs, coolant condition, etc) before even considering adding power. There's nothing sadder than the "I added boost then it shat the bed" thread.
