bleeded the brakes this evening fooken ell... i remember everyone telling me V6 front brakes lock up real easy. ive had these thing about 3 months i musent of had them bleeded properly
cos i went for s drive there a while ago in the dry and had to brake for a light that went red suddenly and i could hear the front wheels skreeching. and i wasent pressing them that hard
i dont mind this really though but all i can say is these are absoulutly brilliant brakes
the other thing people were saying is that the brake pedal would be spongy. i dont get this AT ALL. i get bite even when i tap the brake pedal although i do have braided lines
strange thing i reckon i could bleed them even futher as i was rushing this evening.
cant wait to get me rear disks
