no leaks after 6 months, ill keep an eye on it, but its screwed up tight. I had to panel beat the section directly under the booster as its a slightly larger diameter, If you do it properly and give it a quick respray in that area, you shouldn't even notice it. heres my photos: http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...0052008862.jpg (http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k181/Hardcorz/10052008862.jpg) http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...0052008863.jpg (http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k181/Hardcorz/10052008863.jpg) (And Yes the strut bracket is installed!)

thanks for the photo's champ ill try pull it of Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

dont forget to drill a hole in the rod that connects to the pedal as ppl have mentioned before, otherwise the brake pedal sits about 2 inches higher than the accelerator pedal.

only need a mill back behind the existing hole, there is no pressure on that side of the hole as it only pushes the rod in, doesn't get pulled out. IT will sit about level with the accell pedal when its done, I wouldn't drive it without it done, too awkward. ______________ (_OO________ <- as in my crappy drawing here.. You will also need to cut off the overhang through the middle of the first hole, otherwise it will interfere with the bracket under the dash. BTW: The stopping power is awesome, I can stop soooo much better without locking up. one of the best things i ever done to my car.

I might put some pics up later if anyone is interested. all up cost - $100 including fluid,master cyl & booster. I champ im looking in to do this mod myself but im wondering what mods u have done to the bracket for tha booster i understand what u have done with the rod for the pedal but have u welded the vl bracket onto tha vt booster or just modifed the vt one. thanks heaps geoff

theres a bolt for the booster behind the steering column. How the farrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrk do I unscrew the lil *******?

dude its a pain in the ass the first time ive done it heaps now got easier undo the two screws for the steering colum just behind were the indicator part is the colum should drop so u can get to it much easier then get upside down lol get a socket and a socket extension part its about a 12mm screw just exactly above were the steering colum goes through the firewall

Meh, use 1/4 drive with a few long extensions, you will get it straight on.

I borrowed some tools off a mechanic mate .......... VT master/booster is all in now. I'll bleed the brakes tomorrow. I'll let ya know how it is. My tiling tools apparently werent the greatest selection of tools meant for doing this work, lol

iv been told i need to raise my brake pedal up if i wanna pass the pits and im sick of adjusting the handbrake cable atm the brakes only start working once youve pushed the pedal about half way down, the brakes work fine though thanks Tom

Whats the difference between the vt and vs master cylinder? I got a vt one from the wreckers but i think hes given me a vs. Would it make much difference to performance?

vt is a 1 and 1/4" fast fill design, which relates to the peformance aspect of it. vs is no good for the application.

Anyone know how to tell the difference between a vs and vt master cylinder. Mine looks identical to the one in the first post.

Anyone got any new pictures of There VT Booster Installed Just got a Vt Brake setup given to me and wanna install it all Brakes Booster Ect !

i fitted the vs booster and vt master cyl 2 weeks ago and its the best move i have made... it pulls up very very easily now... was a little touchy at first to get use too

if you are worried about possible leaks fom lines with not using the adaptors find someone who installs heat pumps for a living they have a tool that reflares and seats lines correctly if you ask nicely they may do it for you for nothing absolutly no chance of leaks takes about 5 minutes of there time hop this helps

Great article and mod Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
