the booster and MC are fine, the weak link is the prop valve as it's too high as drums need more pressure than discs, so a bit of work ahead for a weekend

Actually EJ8 use the same prop as the disc variant lol, i havent changed mine at all, an to be honest it seems very balanced

have you checked your rotors and calipers, how long ago was this, I'm keen to know, if it's been fine for a year or so that makes me happy

been staring at a few cars lately in the yard, lol

[mugen_ctr]

its been almost 6 months now since i done the conversion, no problems at all, pads are all fine and the rotors, no cracks at all, but other wise, the RTA bushes are starting to show signs of wear, small cracks or so, gonna replace them soon

For a peace of mind, should probs machine the rotors and get fresh pads, and also check the wheel bearing as u dont wanna b tearing down the hub months later down the track just to replace the bearing, and also the RTA bushes

And hopefully, by the end of the year gonna go 282mm rotors an Ek9 calipers
