Uprated rear brakes

[Jamie1st]

Hi guys. Does anyone know if there's a bigger rear brake setup that can be fitted to a Glanza?

Gt4 etc? Or will it be wildwood/ksport

Haven't heard of one as of yet mate it's definitely something that needs doing the only trouble is the handbrake cable

Pointless unless you add a adjustable bias valve as it's only about 15% of braking done at the rear.

I've got a bias valve ready, competing with the car do I'd say it's crucial to set the car up how I want it to drive

agree something for the rear brakes is needed, noticed once i put 4 pots on the front the back end goes twitchy when breaking hard, guess where the breaking balance is out now

Fit the same pad material to the back as you have on he front, make sure your rear disks are fresh, do away with the standard proportioning valve and fit an adjustable one.

The only time you really need to shift your braking around once it's set is if it's wet out, bigger rear brakes are unnecessary.

Fiat turbo calipers and astra discs, you have to get a small amount machined from the inside of the disc.

Think there was a thread on tgtt

We're planning on doing a rear kit, but it's a way off yet I'm afraid.... :-/

It's on the list, but getting the (re-stock) 4-pot kit bracket batch finished is in front I'm afraid!

Pity

but priorities and all that jazz
