Two questions

[SuperUno]

Couple of questions before starting work on the Micra rally car.

I will be fitting a hyd. handbrake, and i am looking for a diagram of the brake line piping from the master cylinder to the front callipers and rear cylinders, including the limiting valve. Also anyone got any pics of a hyd. handbrake fitted to a Micra ? I have got a WRC Style upright one and a Tilton bias valve.

Also i would like to fit an override switch for the rad cooling fan, i know it is ECU controlled but it would be good to be able to switch the fan on when i come in from stage.

Finally watch this space for my new blog which will detail then new mods and events in the Micra, off to see Matt Humphris on Weds to collect a whole load of parts.

Hi Matt,

Heres the brake pipe "map"

Are you binning the factory rear bias adjuster & just running one line to the rear?

When fitting my handbrake i merged the two rear lines with a T piece, the then single line through the bias valve, through the handbrake then T pieced them out to each rear caliper, you do lose the split braking system this way though.

Theres a pic of it on my blog

I will run just one line to the rear like you have.

Thanks for the info
