[QUOTE="OSFlanker, post: 110998, member: 12"] Jules, u didn't post up the photo of the contents of my stomach that came out during your brake testing session????? The White Knight used to have long pedal travel, but after changing the rear to discs and also steel braided hoses all round, not to mention 4 new discs and pads, the braking feel seem to have improved. Of course, it still doesn't feel as solid as E34 brakes but it's a big improvement. So I am now in a dilemma whether to change the servo/master cylinder setup. Best brakes in terms of instant bite I have personally tried are VW Golf GTi MK5 and Peugeot 406. Both really bite, even more so than E34. This goes to show the setup of the modern brake system is much different to those days. Anyone who drove an Alfasud in the wet will testify that E30 brakes are good! [/QUOTE]
