i searched and couldnt find nething that comes close to the problem im having
when i did my ITR swap i had an EX as a beater and swapped the hubs over, ever since the car has been on the road ive had a problem w. the brakes, i bought a brand new booster when i did the swap, when im driving it and release the clutch at very low speeds it comes to a stop as if i hit a brick wall, does it in reverse too, another thing when i cut the car off the brake pedal seems to pressurize, could i have possibly installed the booster wrong? put teh brake line on wrong when reinstalled the hub, or could my lines be shot? any advice would be helpful at this point because im stumped

 

neone?

 

someone has to have a resolution for my problem

 

it sounds like your master cylinder is preloaded and the brakes are dragging. back off on the rod that attaches the pedal to the master/booster

 

what exactly is meant by "back off the rod" ?

 

there could be lots of thing wrong when u say that the brake pedal is hard when off is it after a few pumps or istant hard and is the pedal soft or hard when runnning also do this test and tell me what happens with car off press on the brakes and start the car does the pedal go down at all

 

the pedal is instant hard when the car cuts off, you cant even pump the pedal, when driving it feels to be normal pressure unless the car idles for a few minutes, and when you cut the car back to the on start position the pedal softens back up

 

i need more input, please

 

nobody knows brakes?

 

??????

 

i think its ur booster reserve (you are loosing vacuum so right behing the master clyinder there should be a round black plate going to the fire wall there should also be a hose to that check for leaks and make sure that hose is connected

 

what do you mean by round black plate and are you talkin about the hose that connects the booster to the intake mani?

 

did you put the check valve thingy in the proper position?

 

the check valve was never moved when i swapped boosters, i spoke w. a guy that said its really not needed, i took it out and it solved the problem for a couple of days, but now the problem came back

 

nemore input on this situation at hand?

 

Advance auto parts or Autozone booster?

If so take it back and get your money back and buy a OEM Adler booster.

The boosters from advance and autozone dont release vaccume so the brakes engauge and vac builds up.

 

kinda haveing the same problem but my pedal is always really hard untill i kcik the **** out of it a few times. bump for some more info

 

its neither advanced or autozone, its napa, probably not any better

 

well i changed back to my stock booster and it went back to normal, must be somethign in the new booster, either adjustments or just a bad booster
