my brakes locked up on me a few days ago and I go new front brake rotors, pads, and brake calipers. yesterday they got tight on me after a had stop right after a shift and my cluch was still in >.< I know that's bad but i let the car sit started her up and the brakes released. fine than i thought i was ok. but today i was just sitting at a red light in N with my brake slighly pushed down to keep me from rolling back. i took of slow and knew right away what was wrong so i pulled off to let the car sit but the brakes never let up... so i drove it a block home going about 30mph and it's not parked outside. SOMEONE HELP ME!!! what's wrong???
Oh yeah it's a 73 240z

have you checked your master? do you live in an area up north where it could rust from salt or is it already rusted? are the seals blown- has water gotten into the system? Try to bleed the system completely- to be honest I dont know that much about that car to help you out man- someone else is going to be better equiped to help- Im just kinda putting in my two cents.

Sounds like maybe the emergency splitter valve is wigging out. Its designed to keep fluid from leaking out of a system , like say if one of your lines was leaking. The small piston/ball inside of it will move to the side with the least pressure and block off that complete side of the system. They can wear out , or somehow it's sensing unequal pressure in the system.

I agree, I think this is it. Its in your master cylinder.
