Thanks for all the helpful responses, guys! That's great.

The knowledge of what causes the red brake light in the speedo to come on (imbalance between the front and rear systems, not necessarily low pressure system-wide) is very helpful. I'll bleed the system again and see what happens.

Im trying to fix this. My red light comes on very dim.

I could only get the parts from old junk yard z's. Only the complete switch (part number 46100-U5200) is available on line for ~ $175 USD.

You may have to get a couple of used ones to refresh and rebuild into a good one as they are usually rusted and gunked-up inside.

Here is a great image I just found:

And if you need the rear proportioning valve for an early z just $20 right now on ebay: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/71-DATSUN-240Z-260Z-280Z-BRAKE-JUNCTION-CONNECTOR-BLOCKS-/170860083474?pt=Vintage_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item27c80df912#ht_500wt_970

I need to get one of this. FIrst picture. Are they still NLA?
