no biuld photos , i made an adapter plate by making two plates one to bolt pattern of booster and other to prado clutch master and joined them with tubing. the hole in fire wall had to be made larger as the nissan booster piston is about 40mm in diameter and 75 mm long. the bracket that pins to the clucth pedal had to lenghtend. the toyota master cylinder was redrilled to the bolt patern of alloy spacer on booster. one hole was close and one had to be redrilled . the ouput push rod of booster had to be screwed in so there was a small clearance to master cylinder. i removed the fitting off the vacuum pump and welded on a 10mm barb . a one way check valve is in the vacuum line. made a brake line joiner and short bundy line. the clutch is lighter than my wifes nissan pulsar. second hand booster and lines cost $75 and took about a day to fit. no more knee trouble saved me selling it and buying auto.

Maybe I've got strong legs, but I've got no idea why anyone would need to bother doing that! Didn't think the clutch was heavy at all in my 120 or the 150s that I've driven
