Will be interested to see how the brake bias is with the MC piston 'modified'! Also Ray's comment is interesting about the station wagon MC.

I have fitted softer competition pads on the rear (as done by several others - see Racer Industries). That has made a vast difference and I only now get a slight 'chirp' out of the front left on a full 'panic' stop. Seemingly no lock up is able to be induced. However, I suspect that under repeated braking I could get fade that upsets the balance. Another option is to use the GRT callipers on the front as well, with an adapter.

Anyway interested in your removal of the "frilly cup/o ring thingy"!

Cheers,
