slick Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 Might work. But best to do it the right way. Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 What years does this apply to? The 95 Regal still has excellent braking, 217k miles later. My 89 has 220k, though I wouldn't say it has excellent braking by far. It's no worse than my truck or the 94. The 88 had over 200k when it was parked and the brakes were... typical GM. Can the 94-96 brake booster be used on 93 and older brake systems? Yes, but only on an automatic car. 94+ booster is too big for a 5-speed car, some part is in the way, I want to say clutch master cylinder, but I don't remember if that's it. Quote

Very good to know, thank you!! Quote
white4d96 Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 I wonder... would replacing a 94+ booster with an older booster reduce the amount of assist, since the older ones are smaller? Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 Probably, yes, but why would you want LESS assist?!?! Even a 94+ booster doesn't seem to have nearly enough assist when compared to other non-GM cars. Quote
white4d96 Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 Just a random thought. I'll have to switch over to one when I go G282 anyhow. I DO wish I had less power steering though... Quote
