Just spent the last few weeks trawling & investigating, still stuck with a few things. Anyway, plan, as I've seen done a couple times just in this thread is to do a front brake upgrade involving:
TR/S Single Pot Magna Calipers (Second hand)
New Pads
276mm Mini Cooper Rotors (New)
and Keep original Booster
Replacing wheel bearings due to age & extra load/stress from bigger rotors*
What I'm stuck with is
Do I stick with the factory BMC & hope for the best, or
Upgrade to Evo3 1" BMC & find a proprtioning valve to match?
and with lines, do the magna fittings match up to the factory CE ones?
Just don't want to end up with brakes I can't use cause the rears lock up way too soon or have a real soft pedal feel.
I think Donki mentioned the rears on his locking under hard braking even with discs on the rear, which I'm assuming have bigger slave cylinder size ect. ?
Not desperate for answers, still in the planning stages and if it has been mentioned before, sorry, I've done my best to find/understand it aha.
Very open to discussion and other ideas, TIA
