Hi all quick question about the rear brakes.
As we all know the rear brakes are very poor if the rear compensater were to be removed and a brake bias valve fitted would this improve the efficiency and is it allowed on a road car.
Also I went to Llandudno last weekend as a sprint blue was going to the scrap yard so I got many parts for a good price I'm about to refurb the rear brakes for mine as one of the bleed niples is completely seized and noticed that the calipers i have got are slightly different one has the slider bar on the outside and one has the slider but no outside bar and doesn't appear to be broken are their two types.
Thanks

i have bought the brake pads from lancia delta evo
they are bigger, you have only to skim a bit the edges
but you gain around 1.5/2cm of overall pad lenght
