My car stops like shit
My car stops like ****
Hi everyone
As previously stated, my car stops like ****. The brakes are really spongy (I'm assuming this is from air in the lines)
I was thinking about switching in the Si master cylinder (undoubtedly someone will suggest an Acura 1" MC but that would mean I would have to do the brake booster as well, and I really don't wanna deal with that. I'll cut my 1/16th inch loss).
Would this yield a noticeable improvement in stopping power, for the time being? (I eventually want to do the rear disc swap)
thanks

Undoubtedly I would suggest getting the air out of the lines. Ridding the air would get rid of the spongy brake pedal.

Re: My car stops like ****
thats great but you still need to make sure your front/rear PSI numbers are high enough. there could be a leak in one of the brake lines. in which case no amount of modding will help you.
