Hello everybody,

How can I achieve a little bit more brake pressure at the rear?

Does someone have a special upgraded brake pressure valve / brake pressure regulator, that
produces a little bit more braking power at the rear wheels?
If yes, how much does it cost? Or is it possible to modify the standard one?

greetings

Just wondered WHY you want to achieve more rear brake pressure ?????

I upgraded my rears to Tarox pads and discs , this gave a much better feeling .

What front discs and pads you running? may be worth doing these aswell .

....get Harj to sit in your boot - it seems to work well at rolling road days.... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif

...the sensible answer - a bias box - available from rally parts suppliers or Demon Tweeks etc - disclaimer - you fit this at your own risk etc....

GGR sells the AP racing brake bias valves. It is said to be fitted to the rear brake circuit though, so your question still remains, how to get more rearward brake bias.

SO you want the equivalent of a hand brake turn each time you dive into a corner under braking??

As mentioned before - do this at your own risk.

MrData:
If you fit bigger front brakes, ie bigger calipers, the balance will be upset and you'll need to rebalance the braking to the original setting.
