cletus Posted November 7, 2024 Posted November 7, 2024 Smaller is better when non boosted so if the 7/8 one is the smallest wilwood one I'd get that Like @Nominal said you will likely need to reduce the pedal ratio, there's not really a recipie that you can fit x y and z parts and it will work first time in your exact setup The rest of your questions are in the CCM which I would recommend reading as you go, so you get it correct as you do each thing.

shizzl Posted November 7, 2024 Posted November 7, 2024 I tried looking for the pedal ratio required, I must be blind. Edit: found it , between 4:1-6:1 for boosted. non boosted 5:1-7:1 so a 6.25:1 Wilwood pedal box would work smaller bore=less forced required to operate, correct? Quote

Steel bundy or Copper Nickel, and not that china copper nickel from Temu. I think you can run all braid if you have logbooked vehicle. Any Braided hose you have made for the flexis need to be tagged because china. 3 2 Quote

440bbm Posted November 7, 2024 Posted November 7, 2024 people that buy any of the materials, hoses, fittings off those ( ali / temu / alibaba etc etc) places all need to be fucking shot. yes there is saving money when the ability to during car builds cos yes its fucking stupidly expensive but cmon guys. pull ya damn heads in. yes theres lotsa shit that comes from china but at least reputable NZ or AU companies take the warranties and liabities on if supply you these terrible quality things. and have also done the hard yards to find the better quality shit they're selling you not the rest of it. 6 Quote

smokin'joe Posted November 10, 2024 Posted November 10, 2024 @cletus toyota 3L to 5L with mechanical pump......... cert needed ? both terribly gutless, feck all difference in CC's. Tom's Surf/4Runner getting Ebernezza Knockworthy, and wanting legals Fanx Quote
cletus Posted November 10, 2024 Posted November 10, 2024 Technically, yes unfortunately If you're going to cert it may as well do a turbo to make it worthwhile On a similar note, different type of car- One that caught me out was a guy had cut the engine mount number pad off and neatly epoxied on one he'd cut offathe original one I didn't notice until he told me 1 6 Quote

440bbm Posted November 10, 2024 Posted November 10, 2024 does the extra capacity overrule the 25% hp gain rule? Quote

So they make the rules more and more strict. 1 Quote
