thank you for taking they time to share some info. I was floored when i saw your post because my car is the same color I thought what are the chances off that. mine is the four wheel drums so ill try to find aome front discs. Thaks again.

Nice breaking system ;) You should have a James Bond style compartment under your bumper to drop more of those "braking systems" XD. Nice car, nice conversion, good luck with your electric Bluebird!

All I ever wanted was a 5 to 10 minute videos of these cars. WHY!!!!!!

+Ted Darland - My car is an RL411, so it had front discs and rear drums from the factory. I rebuilt the front calipers with seals and pistons available on eBay. I rebuilt the rear cylinders with seals available widely. I replaced the stock single-line master cylinder with the dual line master cylinder from a 1977-81 280zx. I ran a new line from the master cylinder to the rear brake line using a 3/8-24 union. I ran another line from the M/C to the factory brake line tee with the rear line output on the tee plugged. Make sure those new lines have 3/8-24 line nuts on the car end and M10x1 line nuts on the M/C end. You may need a longer pushrod for the new master cylinder. If you have a PL411 with front drums, find an RL disc setup or buy a conversion kit from Blue Hands, Inc. (I have bought two from him, they are great). You will need to run non-stock wheels with the kit, 14" or larger.

Hows this coming along??
