Good tip! Wish I saw this earlier. Mine looks a little shallow threaded into the MC and this would explain why. Guess I'll leave it for now since it's not leaking.IF/when reusing the OEM lines, the ends that went into the 'Tee' below the Master Cylinder all have a slight 'lead' built into them. So if you place that end into a shallow fitting....there won't be much thread engagement and a leak might occur.
It's an easy thing to overlook.
Which side didn’t seat right?Looks clean. I personally had a hella of a time using the provided thread adapters from flying miata, they just didn't seen to seat that deep.
why adapters? theu make a wilwood with toyota metric fitting sizes....Looks clean. I personally had a hella of a time using the provided thread adapters from flying miata, they just didn't seen to seat that deep.
They don’t - bubble flare M10.why adapters? theu make a wilwood with toyota metric fitting sizes....
I stand corrected. My memory continues to get worse.They don’t - bubble flare M10.
rock auto also sells a 8" hard line with 3/8-24 on one side and M10x1 on the other. Could be useful for anyone putting the proportioning valve up by the master cylinder.
All of mine went into the garbage. ABS unit, lspv, the whole lot of it. Not going back and I'm not selling this rolling death trapThe brake booster on my 94 just went out on me. Many years ago, I removed the abs fuse and took the bulb out of the dash after I could not get the brain to bleed thoroughly. Been driving it without issue ever since. Additionally, I’ve removed all the ABS sensors and wires along the axles/frame. Figured now would be a good time to do the full ABS/LSPV delete while I’m in there. I’ll also be replacing some brake lines as well.
I’ll report back with results and initial thoughts after the first test drive. Looking forward to the extra room under the hood and hoping to have better braking as well. What’d everyone do with their old parts?

I boxed mine up in the hope that someday they will be worth $5k and I can go on a bender.......The brake booster on my 94 just went out on me.

I’ve been doing that for decades, maybe I have a $500 jewel hiding out there now? My old brake parts were lucky to make the recycling bin.I boxed mine up in the hope that someday they will be worth $5k and I can go on a bender.......

I replaced my booster when I did the ABS & LSPV delete, its way easier with lines out of the way but you will want a second set of hands to guide the new booster in on the install. Took us about 5 minutes to wrangle it into position but was smooth sailing after that.About to get the delete done today. Unfortunately the booster won’t be here u til tomorrow, but with all the other brake lines out of the way it should make easier work to swap the booster.
