wow.. I've been looking for this thread for some time now. Thanks for posting in Johnnys Birthday Thread..
On that Note, I'm loving the progress.. Nothing will stop you guys from building this monster. Props to the blood and sweat you've put into it thus far..
Best Build EVER
black ex coupe - as great as braided lines look, the hard lines are a lot more invisible. i'm sure your set up will look darn good.
darkcloud - thanks man, if you have any more questions, don't hesitate to ask!
xclusive - LOL that sucks. One will come around sooner or later, in the meantime you can start planning out, or even collecting, parts.
bmx - thanks for reading! i think i've put the majority of sweat into it, while Jon has contributed the majority of blood.
JDMxDB8 - yeah, we never had intentions to retrofit ABS, even though, as it turns out, the majority of our brake pieces were from ABS equipped cars. Having never owned a car w/ abs, could you explain in what ways the non-abs set up felt better?
NAiL - I think the colors on that flaring tool really do it for me. How can you be a boy and say no to bright red and blue.
Well the brake lines are from the new pedals to the brake calipers. We ditched the abs and stock brake system. Front calipers have their own MC, rear calipers has its own MC, and the clutch line has its own MC. The rear brakes will use most of the oem lines though.
Whoa. Are you running two separate brake boosters for the two master cylinders?
I'm assuming your doing this to be able to utilize all of one of the MC's brake fluid to pressurize only two calipers' cylinders, rather than all four calipers as in a normal set up. Or am I totally off track?
I haven't heard of anything like that before. Sounds pretty creative and custom-work-intensive.

Its the tilton race pedal assembly with tilton master cylinders and brake bias control.
Each master cylinder will only be pressurizing 2 calipers instead of 1 big MC for all 4 corners. I believe the brake booster is completely eliminated, but I have to look everything over again.
