Considering i'm not racing, just doing track days, i'm routing brake lines through car anyways

Do i:

A) Route them through teh car to the orignal bias valve and just use that with set adjustment via threaded bar

OR

B) buy TWO (yes you need 2) screw type bias valves at atleast £30 each(2nd hand, £70 new), and fit them in the car somewhere for fine adjustment while going round track

You dont need 2 bias valves just swap the pipes round on the master cylinder, then T the 2 rear pipes together run them through the valve then T them back out again

Putting one in the rally car along with my hydraulic handbrake :D for easyer turns

so's mine, used for road rallys so not allowed to be totally stripped so its used every day as well

If you swap the pipes round on the master cylinder you end up with front, rear split brakeing instead of diagnol

Belive me i wouldnt want to totally loose my brakes either :wink:
