    Default Brake Booster Questions

    Hey guys,

    I am sourcing parts for my brakes/coilover install.

    Just wondering if there is much a difference between leaving it stock or upgrading it to the Mitsubishi Pajero MC or a 2003-2006 Camry MC.

    I can get the sizing for you too if that helps. All options are direct bolt in just not sure which I need if I were to do a hilux 4 pot or corona 2 pot upgrade.

    Cheers

    Tony

    Talking about master cylinder?
    I don't think u would get a Camry booster in to the celica, the factory one should be good, just rekit it and fit a one way valve, with the Camry master cylinder

    That is if its fucked that it,
    Take it to a brake shop that does this Type of work, they will fit a new rubber diaphragm to it and clean it out, they will be able to supply a valve to, you just fit that in the line, other wise a backfire through the intake will blow the diaphragm
    If you look at the. 2nd and third pic you can see it, follow the line to the intake

    This post is full of the good stuff

    Thanks for the photos. That is one very clean engine bay. Nice work.

    Is there any reason why you chose the camry one over the pajero?

    Actually the one way valve is there, so if the motor stalls you still have boosted brakes for a couple of applications also if you are hard on the throttle & just come off as you hit the brakes again you will still have vacuum in the booster etc ...

    Cheers. If there was a reason, I have long since forgotten it. May have been simple brand loyalty.

    Cheers,

    In answer to the original question - you will definitely need to upgrade your master cylinder if you are going to be running the bigger calipers

    You will end up with a mushy pedal other wise, that no amount of bleeding will fix.

    I ended up picking up a pajero master cylinder and I've pulled out my brake booster for a quick clean and a lick of paint.
