Rear bias valve...



M

mini-valver

Removed the ABS and fitted a non ABS master cylinder. This means I have 2 lines to the rear. Now, the bias valve has 1 inlet and 1 outlet meaning I'm going to have to either T the 2 rear lines from the master cylinder down to 1, into the bias valve, out of the bias valve, T again into 2 and split to each rear brake. OR block one of the outlets for a rear brake at the master cylinder and run a single line through the bias valve and T inside the car to each rear brake.

Now Im not 100% happy with either of these, nor do I really want to be using the ABS master cylinder because I'll have to T the front lines then.

Anyone have any input?

You'd never get them both identical without dropping it in a set of rollers and then you cant set it on the move accurately.

Needs to be right, or it'll proper piss me off, lol. Not keen on splitting the fronts but I think its probably the best way to go and use the ABS cylinder. Unless I can block one of the rear outlets without it having an effect on the efficiency.....
 
Tbh, if it was mine, I'd use the abs cylinder and T the fronts. Be similar to my old race mini then and they were spot on.

Why you removed the abs?

Couldn't you use a different master cylinder. The 205 gti has two front outlets and one rear. Don't know what the fitment would be like as I've never had a clio one off but you never know with the french.

ABS s***s itself with the 4 pots!

Gonna blank a rear outlet off I think, seen a few Fords done like it so it should be ok. Dont want to put any more joints in the front lines than I have too and I dont like the idea of running 2 4 pot calipers from 1 brake line.
