Do you have the pad fitting kit at all?

Great vids Paul!! Looks like a lot of travel on the brake pedal

^^^ same for me old pliers with the ends ground down. Did think about a bit of old scrap bar with some 5mm bolts in it!

All the info / help's appreciated mate

Thanks Paul, an interesting read :) Softening the rear seems like the most cost effective thing to do for now then! Glad in heading in the right direction allowing the rear to take more of the transfer

Reading back through some notes and the original spring/shock Tarmac setup for the rear was 175lb so a set of 180lb will be here in the week :) New decals are on & the car got it's annual wash and wax

I'm with you there Chris, I know kit cars have a lot gone into there geometry etc but there rear lift is very minimal, the quicker all 4 wheels are on the floor the better in my eyes

Few more decals made up, always wanted a set of these :)

Glad you had a good run on the manx roads mate. Nothing handles like a hire car eh!

275lb fronts 250lb rear bud What about your good self?

Ta Andy, the cars track carnt change without affecting the class I compete in. I'm sticking to road class for now. Testing was an airfield track using the return road. The whole setup needs to be Manx/Tarmac Irish/Tarmac B road rally stage friendly. Race/circuit type is no good to me as that's...

I should say it's was the rear ARB that was adjusted Andy. Yes 4psi increase on the fronts, to be honest the damping on the front I have a lot of free adjustment, it felt better with a softer damper up front. The rears arnt reacting fast enough at the moment it's hitting a rise or bump...

I should mention what I had a go changing! ARB was set to medium but this lead to even more rear wheel in the air antics an losing grip overall, tyres were set to 28/24 leading to 32/38 when hot. Damping on the fronts set to full hard but this brought on understear and a light steering so was...

TEST AND TUNE Today went very well heavy fog made learning the track crucial but lifted after a few hours! Car went well all day as strong as ever, still amazes me the punishment CG / CGA motors take an still make ready power. A stupid moment saw me forget the memory card for the Camera :( so...

Test and tune day tomorrow to stretch the car after it's mapping. Few options to try out with the suspension / ARB / tyre pressures Hoping to get a few GoPro vids

Could it be the trumpet length?

Tapered bore 45 to 43mm bud

Evening gents thank you all for the help. A few delicate hours with a file but 2.5 threads ground off the stainless bleed screw and it's sealing like a goodun. Typical they are all different sizes!

Thanks very much for the help guys :) Unfortunately brakes Int is where the new parts came from that don't quite fit. Though iv used then before and always been impressed with them

Here's the problem, the distance on from the thread to the cones seat is 2mm shorter than the factory bleed nipple so it isn't sealing, but every part number I find is the same!!
