hey i have a 96 s14, i still have the auto brake booster from when i did the 5 speed conversion, and i think my auto booster is not helping at all, because when im driving my brakes piston on both sides maybe even the back are compressing on its on and making me brake when my foot in not even on the brake pedal

and even sometimes when i brake myself it starts to stink like the pads and it catches on fire

wtf shit lol, so im sure i need the manual brake booster but i was wondering if i could use the s13 brake booster or do i have to use the s14.... and is the booster my broblem???? and is someone has the manual s14 booster let me know thanks later and get back to me please

Booster has nothing to do with this, The booster is an Assistant to help push the brakes.

Brake calipers are more than likely seizing, replace them

well i do here metal rubbing agaist each other near the brakes but only on the right hand front side

Sileighty_85 · 08-16-2009, 03:46 PM

either the pad is totaly gone or its the warning indicator

stick to one thread
