Good Evening again fine people of scoobynet, i'm Back with another question

Ive recently fitted a set of D2 brakes, ds2500 pads, gsm bells and rotors, braided lines and high temp fluid to my 2005 wrx track car. now, Im guessing that because of the larger volume of the d2s over standard wrx brakes the fluid has further to go to squeeze the pistons therefor my brake pedal must travel further to push said fluid. am i correct?

If so then is there anything i can do / component i can add to the system to bring the bite point a bit higher. would the servo from an sti help as i hear they are different to accommodate the larger brembos.

Thanks in advance, any advice or suggestions welcome

It's not the servo it's just the master cylinder straight swap.

And this will bring the bite up a bit?

Bleed again let them bed in because it probably won't. I was just answering your question on servo/master cylinder.

alright thanks mate any info is good info. Tried bleeding up when fitted then once again afterwards and it's still alot further than what I'd like - past or flush with the loud pedal

Lol get some proper advice as the above is b0llocks.
The greater volume will have no effect.
I'd suggest you have air in the system.

Don't listen to Tubby the Sti pedal would actually give you more brake feel IF you had everything correctly bled and bedded in etc as you would be moving more fluid to do the same job the as narrower one inch cylinder.

no std factory 15" wheel was ever designed to clear the 4pot set-up, although certain later 16" wheels were............

in 15" your looking at pukka competition wheels

it maybe bulkhead flex. You could try adding a brake stopper?
