Recommended Posts

Got my brake master cylinder stopper through last week so after fitting a few extra shiny things to the engine today i went to put this on. I did it before on my NA without 2 much trouble so just a few mins work i thaught.

 

However my new car is a UK spec, and right where the stopper is supposed to sit i have some pump thingy and a few other brackets and cables and stuff. Im not sure what they are but they get in the way and i cant see how to move them!

 

At the moment it looks like i wont be able to fit it.

 

Any help would be nice.

 

Edit. Heres what im talking about. The red is a bracket that as far as i can see is just holding a wire. but i cant get to remove it because of whatever the green thing is.

:rlol: i feel reasonably qualified to talk about brakes on this forum, if you want a proper brake upgrade try these, BTW they cost just a little more than £20 off e-bay :D

ahh see now im not talking about brake ability, just pedal feel. in terms of stopping power it makes sweet fa of a difference. was going to write that earlier but got lazy lol. just improves the feel. at the end of the day if im going to hit a wall id rather do it feeling good :D

Hadyn, I thought the ally washer was to be used if you never had the OEM mounts. The red part has a hole in it which the stud fits into. I could be wrong though.

 

 

Kev I'm struggling to understand what you mean here? I might be being thick or something though???

 

I fitted the stud into the red thing's hole no probs :D
