As luck would have it the new bias valve arrived today !!! as soon as tein return my shocks (4 weeks so far and still waiting ! GRRRR ! ) I will I will fit the shocks so I can get the car in the workshop and complete the brake project and put up the details - I have done a little bit of research and...
Cheers for the info. Ant - I owe you a beer ! - I have a bias adjusting valve on the way but started thinking that maybe the problem was the master cylinder itself - I will post up a bit of ifo on the set up if the bias valve is a success- it may help some one in the future if they go down tis route...
Okay thanks for the info. Maybe changeing the master cylinder may cure my problem - I have fitted rev 3 turbo rear calipers and hi spec front 4 pot calipers to my rev 1 turbo but no matter what I do the rear brakes are completly overwhelming the front 4 pots - there is no air in the system (it has b...
I have put larger 4 pot calipers on the front (hi-spec) and rev 3 turbo calipers on the rear - the rear calipers are now way over braking and the 4 pots are hardly doing anything at the front. Concensus of opinion is that because the 4 pots require more fluid than the origional front 2 pots and the ...
Can any one help please - I need, after fitting some 4 pot calipers to the front of my turbo, to put in a brake bias adjusting valve to restrict the flow to the rear brakes a little and restore brake balence - to do this I have to cut into the rear brake line and put in the valve but I need to know ...
Hi , As promised a little bit more feed back on the work done - I still havent done as many miles as I would have liked due to some brake issues but here goes. The car with the cams and the rev 1 to rev 3 ecu etc. conversion pulls like a train above 3000 RPM and just dosent seem to run out of puff! ...
Thanks for the info mate, sadly done all this - at no time was the resovoir empty changed the calipers one at a time and tried every combination of bleeding - its all good until the engine is started and the servo is going then the pedal goes all soggy again. Left the pedel depressed last night with...
Okay all - I need some advice - I have just fitted new discs and rev 3 calipers on the rear of my rev 1 and hi spec 4 pots on the front but now I cannot get them to bleed off everything is fine until I run the motor and the servo is running then the pedal goed#s spongey at first and then down to the...
Tim, long shot I know given what I have read here but maybe its o2/lambo sensor related - had a simaler problem once with no error codes / changed ecu's etc. hope this helps.
Just thought I would share this with any one concerned - took my car to 3s for a rev 1 to rev 3 conversion and a cam change- having had a rather expensive and bad experience with another "toyota specialist" I was wary of leaving the car any where! NO NEED TO WORRY ANYMORE - what a fantasti...
I bought a couple of other things as well so my total bill was $157 plus shipping -$80.00 if you bought just the underbrace it would be a lot cheaper. as for trd arb's I am in the same boat as you - if I find a supplier I will p.m. you.
If any one is still interested in underbraces try looking up ultra racing - I bought a brace from them the quality was good, fitting was fairly painless and you can pay in U.S. $$$$'s - the company is in Malaysia and the contact is Elsong Tong. I had my brace and a couple of items within a week and ...
Hi all, I am currently converting my rear rev 1 turbo calipers to rev 3 does any one know the part number for ebc greenstuff pads for rear rev 3 turb pads? I have been on ebc's web site and they are only listing red stuff pads for the turbo - I currently run red stuff pads in my rev 1 brake set up a...
Hi Nik thanks for the info.- I have the hubs up for sale at the moment and some one asked the question if they would fit the rev 3 - I will pass the info. along. many thanks.
