I'm glad this came up. The last time I drove my 95 GSR, I was stopped in LA traffic going uphill and my brake pedal sunk all the way down and my car was about to slowly start rolling backwards; I exited and took the streets home. Great info everyone... now I believe my brake MC may need to be replaced.

yeah, if you're gonna crash your gsr, slam it into a pole like i did. don't just roll back into someone, that's weak. seriously tho, glad you got the chance to solve your problem before it became a bigger problem!

If they offer you a choice between a 1yr warranty part and a lifetime warranty part, get the lifetime part.

From my experience the 1yr parts are crap. I once went through 4 alternators in a year. On the last one, I paid the difference between the 1yr and lifetime part and put the lifetime alt in. That one was still in there when I sold the car 3yrs later.
