I see where Moss motors is selling an upgraded front brake wheel cylinders for a Jag XK150 which according to Tech Wiki should fit our cars! Has anyone seen this or tried this kit? On sale for $300. for all 4. White Post restorations want $125 per cylinder to sleeve. It looks like Moss kit has 2 guide pins on a cylinder, Maybe they could be cut off to fit a Datsun?

Only the inner cylinder is common. Actually the inner Nissan Cylinder is a direct replacement for the Jag. Cylinder. I ordered the Jag. inner cylinder about three years ago from Parts Geek when they were about $82 a pop and it arrived in the Nissan box with the Nissan P/N as if I ordered it for a Roadster directly from Nissan. Having said that the Jag. outer cylinder is a different port / thread for the hydraulic hard line than the Nissan part and won't work. In theory there may be an adapter?????

Great, thanks for clarifying! I thought I had read somewhere that there was a difference.
