Upgraded Brakes...

RRE and Archer.

I know there are a lot of kits to upgrade your front brakes from the single piston calipers and small rotors to the dual piston caliper and larger rotors, but can anything be done for the rear brakes? I remember reading something about the e-brake setup being different on the back therfore making it difficult to upgrade them. Any insight on this?

[Kracka]

No need to do too much to the rears. Nice rotors and pads are all you need.

[FORSFED]

That's kind of what I was thinking since most of your braking power comes from up front. Good pads and rotors with stainless lines as well would probably be the ticket.

Hey Chris, check your PM's about the baer brakes.

[Kracka]

PM's replied to. For some reason I never got the pop-up saying that I had a new PM.

Are there any proportion valve modifications that can be done? I heard/read somewhere that the front to rear braking ratio is 65/35 or something like that. Adjusting more to the rear would greatly help loosen the car up when braking into turns.

You can use the larger 1" brake master cylinder from the big-brake 1G's as compared to the 7/8" from the small-brake 1G's.

I have a '93... Didn't it come with the big brakes?

[Kracka]

Yup, so you have the 1".
