hi. i have a 1990 z32. after standing for the winter, its not breaking properly. i can say its as hard as leg press machine for me to push the break.
someone said you should bleed the breaks. i changed all the break oil and bleed them according to the manual but wont break properly.
someone els said its the break master cylender.
if anyone can help me in this matter, please feel free to e-mail me

or leave a guidence note in here.
thanks alot for help.
alz.
So the pedal is just real hard to push? How much does it move? It shouldn’t move too much.
When driving the car does it take a lot of effort to get it to stop?
Usually a faulty master cylinder means you won’t have any or limited resistance on the brake pedal. (Pedal goes all the way to the floor, or feels sloppy.) It sounds more like a seized caliper to me.
The break pedal feels heavy all the time. Breaking is too hard and getting the pedal to the floor is almost challenging. But I guess I should take it to a nissan dealer to fi d the real problem in it. LOL the real problem is $. But let’s hope for the best. Thanks alot for ur advice and hopefully we will see in one of the meets. Thanks again for ur time.
think ur right… maybe the caliper is seized…
Hey you can take it Nissan dealer but i think they will charge you a high price instead you can see a auto repair get the problem identified, purchase the required part online(that is much cheaper) and get it fitted with the repair shop…FYI you can buy all the required parts here Nissan Auto Parts they offer all the parts at discounted price and also offer a free 2 year warranty on each part…it would much cheaper and help you save a lot of bucks, this is the best i can help!!
