Hi.
I purchased a ready made pedal box from demon tweeks with front / rear bias adjust complete with wilwood master cyclinders.The brake pedal is 6>1 with a master cylinder for the front of .750 and for the rear of .625. Front brakes have been uprated to 280 x 25mm vented disc with wilwood 1.75" 4pot calipers.Rear brakes are aslo being uprated to 265x12mm solid disc with smaller 1.5" 4pot wilwoods.Wilwood do a hand brake caliper but have been told to avoid this as
it seems it is no good for sva/iva. Where as hispec hand brake caliper is sva/iva compatable.
All sounds fine but it's on the road where it counts-and like you that is anytime in the next 10 years!!!
