[QUOTE="madmatt, post: 15589, member: 93"] No worries, this is all very ****ing useful =D I've spent the last 5 minutes looking for the "Thanks" button! As some NASCAR Techie very helpfully labeled the Calipers with the appropriate Disc size, I'm on the hunt for a 330 x 28mm disc, closest I've found (for a semi reasonable price) is from AP. Alcon discs were a fortune. I'll have a nose at Pagid too. Pads aren't so much of a problem, constant stream coming from Nascar and suppliers still make motorsport pads for the old cast model. I'll measure up the pistons tonight before I mock up a disc on autodesk to figure out the mounting bell. I need to find somewhere that can redo the piston seals as well (just incase), going to replace the bleed nipples myself. Anyways.... Am I right in saying that a brake bias could be plumbed in, entirely to the front brakes, reducing the flow to them and allowing the car to compensate to the back? I'm still trying to visualise where the brake bias valve would plumb in, (duh, brakelines) but where in the brake lines?? Dave, the brake lines would be hidden to run to/from the bias valve. My dad's got a brake bias valve (I think/hope) in both his Xzaras, one with AP 4 Pots in the front, other with Tarox 6 pots, so methink's I'll have to trace the lines back... Keep em coming guys =) M [/QUOTE]
