i bought the m-tech kit and followed the instructions from that , mk3 astra gsi rear discs and calipers and i belive the cable is from a mk2 astra gte 16v , i havent noticed any real bias issues yet but havent really hit the brakes mega hard alltho i have it fully unadjusted and i have stretched the spring even more to help it.
