I think I know the answer but I want to make sure. Trying to remove the brake booster and just run a Wilwood master cylinder. And also remove the ABS in the process, I know I will need to run a proportioning valve for the rear brakes, and bend new brake line to the new location. What am I forgetting?

 

I'd also like to know and drew up the same conclusion although with a line lock installed. Are there and down falls to not having a brake booster though? I don't see why you could possible still need it...but then again I'm not a brake person.

 

not the cheapest route www.billingsleyracing.com has what you need. Also they have a bunch of other cool stuff I might order later.

 

I Personally like my ABS but I can see why some people want to remove it. But I can't see why you would want to remove the stock booster and master cylinder. Doing so would increase pedal pressure by at least 100% or more.

You basically got the list right for parts though. BUT! make sure you get a master cylinder that is properly sized for the brakes. The bore and stroke of the master cylinder has to be correctly sized for the front and rear calipers and intended use. Also make sure the pedal geometry is right. If you screw that up you'll hate life. Setting up a brake system is more than randomly picking parts and putting them together. There are many books on the subject that would be of help.

Good luck

 

Well...I figured that I don't like ABS, I've never had a car with it untill this one and I really don't like it. The reason to remove the brake booster is...why not? Hell, manual steering, no ac, and I don't want ABS brakes.

I also did a search on this and did find that website...but I'm interested in finding out what type og psi different systems are and whats the best I should use. I usually dont half-*** things so if its exspensive thats not a problem

Any info on that whole psi thing and the different brake sizes (bore etc..) would be great guys! Thanks for the info so far guys!


EDIT: I think I will go to the B&N and check out to see if they have some books on brake systems! Thanks
