Can you remove the brake mc without removing the brake booster as well? The manual said to remove whole assemblies as a unit. Is it as simiply to just remove the old unit, place new one in, fill it up with brake fluid and bleed the brake...any other advice/tips. Thanks in advance

I believe it all has to come out. On the back side of the MC, there is a link that links to the brake pedal. It isnt hard to get out. All you have to is loosen all the bolts under the brake pedal, disconnect the link(it is held in with a cotter pin) and then push the Booster out. What are the brake pads for that youare selling...front, rear, or both?

 

I did not have to but getting to some of the bolt son the firewall were a pain. FWIW

From the look at it, it look like it can be unbolt from boost master. I just wanted to get some advice before doing so. The manual gave some details on have to remove the brake booster..spin, and twist. It noted to remove them as a unit. I was hoping that I can remove it without booster since my strut bar is in the way.

The pads is metal master and they are for the Si fronts only.
