Is it true the bias valves on the nova saloon will allow less braking to the rear than the hatchback novas??
Whats the number/proportion system they use?? eg. 27/ less braking than 30 ect
Will they fit into the GTE master cylinder???
I need to reduce the braking effect at the back but don't want to spend ?50? on TAS proportioning valves
also Will a big servo from a cavalier fit the Nova GTE master cylinder??
whats involved in fitting??
cheers.
what brakes are on the front? usualy with 16v brakes on front the rears are the correct balance!!
not an easy option wanting a servo bigger than the gsi/gte/sri unit iv looked into this!
is the servo on the gsi's the sam as an sri then :?:

16v brakes on front, soon to be 308mm V6. But im not so sure they are balanced perfect just cos of the big brakes up front, the proportioning valves on the nova will be set differently to the cav/astra/caly.
any gen on the servo? do you have to change the bit that goes through the bulk-head????

frontera 320mm one will fit.... but it's lots of fabricating

gona try a cav GSi or similar i think.
...but is it the bit that goes through the bulkhead and conects to that bar that needs changed????
God, if your willing to go that far you might aswell fit a bias pedal box.....
