What's the advantages?

Is it hard to set-up?

Do you still keep ABS?

Vic,

No, you lose the ABS - that's the idea.

Advantages are the the front and rear brakes each have thieir own supply of fluid, and that it allows you to adjust the amount of braking force front to rear.

Obviously the pedal effort required is significantly higher as there is no servo assistance, but the braking is much more direct.

It also uncomplicates the braking system so that it is literally is the pedal box, two master cylinders, and some brake lines.

Well worth doing for a track car..........

Thanks for that. Seeming as my car is a juggling act between road and track, I'll think I'll keep the conveinence of ABS and not have to worry about increased pedal effort. Thanks!
