Hey there,

 

I've got a TA22 that I'm upgrading the brakes on (4 pot hilux calipers and XT struts!). To make these work I've also got a mitsubishi starion mastercylinder. Unfortunately the master cylinders reservoir is in the way of the vacuum hose.

 

 

anyone have any smart ideas? is it possible to buy a valve with an outlet on a 90 degree bend?

 

Cheers

Ash

 

 

Oh and on a possibly unrelated note, if I push my brake booster rod thing to the side (hardly any force) I can hear a sucking sound, which makes me think that the seal is pretty trashed?

Just take a walk around the wreckers and see, or ask a brake/clutch place for a right-angle one. I've never really taken any notice, but I think there are 90deg ones around. If not, can you set up a remote reservoir?

 

You'll only find out how good the seal is when you hook it up. It doesn't move sideways in normal use.

The last model Camry master cylinder is what you need for that upgrade, 2002 to 2005 , gives good pressure to front and rear and a good pedel feel

Hey man, I'm using a mitsi pajero master on my ke70 with dinalites and its awesome.15/16ths bore.

easy to bolt up to with standard lines too.

What model and year mitsubishi are you using?

looks very tidy!

You could try a ke30 booster.

 

They have a fixed right angled vaccum pipe, should be same bolt pattern on both firewall and master cylinder.

 

If not, you could try other types of mitsubishi master reserviors

I woudlnt go as far as swapping out the booster just to change the vacuum port.

 

Theres gotta be an easy 90deg thing you can buy as altezzaclub suggets.

 

Or even a different brake fluid resevoir that allows a bit more room.

its a master from a 94 mitsubishi pajero.

Thanks mate, I was looking at the one in my brothers 82 pajero wondering why it didn't seem the same.

is that an aftermarket brake bias valve?

yeah its a wilwood preportioning valve.
