[QUOTE="Jules, post: 110832, member: 88"] since master TJ is replyin...I better respond :P 1. since u know, what is the vacuum specs? in kg/m sq. 2. linkage will be standard & I am not aware you have possibilities to adjust this. 3. master cylinder are bleed, no idea abt inner seals condition. 4. fluid - of course they r changed. 5. seals are fine and bleed when item 4 done. 6. discs are NEW, 22mm Mr TJ, sir! no glazing 7. Pagid Fast Road pads NEW - I personally removed the LHS pads and they look all ok - inner and outer ones. You reading on? good. Actually - if you all read my ori post carefully, I solved my issues and have the solution. Thanks anyway for your suggestions and checking the above (TJ), changing the servo (ichiwan) and offer to test ur car (fab). Skar - my cousin, you know who - told me that when the e30 first came out, they had many complaints from the NEW owners. I repeat NEW owners. A upgraded vacuum kit was then available shortly.....so maybe these were for the early batch 323/320. I have personally driven other e30s and found their brakes weak too - at least in my expectation of a good brake. ( all disc/disc setup ) Actually all except one, which is the set-up I have now. The intention of my thread is to see if I am wrong in my expectation and so far, most of you agree with my assessment. ( weak brakes...) I will shortly post up the pic of my set up - to SHARE with you all. Anyhow, I assume Master TJ voted ok for his monster Hartge 327 brakes and Skar too.... [/QUOTE]
