Hey guys i got my dc5r master cylinder/booster on finally and now my brake conversion is complete.
I was wondering do i have to adjust my brake pedal at all because there is a spot at the start of my pedal were it seems like there is no braking at all, it is minimal but still would like to get rid of it.

Cheers

That spot where you think is a gap of no braking is the gap where the pedal engages with the brake light switch. If your car is braking fine than there shouldn't be aanything to worry about. "If i can remember" its a 12mm bolt that helps adjust and minimises the gap between where the pedal makes contact with the brake light switch. So therefore the longer the gap is the longer it takes for the brake light come on when you hit the brake pedal.
