Big Brakes and Addco rear sway bar on sei brakes

[Legend_master]

Thanks, Not really sure on the amount i paid for all of it since I've had the rotors around for at least a year and and the rear disc setup for longer then that. I started ordering the rest of the parts for the swap after that. I know the legend calipers where at least $250~300 then at least $400 for the rotors, $120 for the brake lines, $120 for pads, plus what ever i paid for the rear disc spindles/calipers/proportioning valve, and the custom front brackets for the calipers. I also bought new caliper hardware kits and a rebuild kit for the front calipers. I also used two cans brake paint. I pressed new bearings into the front spindles and new moog ball joints.




The suspension was where i originally started moding my car, and has made the car the most enjoyable out of any of my mods. I think the next time I do the brakes I'm going to look into some wilwood calipers for the front since fast brakes has 4 and 6 piston calipers for the front.


I have a question for those of you running the legend rear calipers. Did you use all of the hardware for them when you installed them? The piece that goes on the caliper that rides on the outside of the rotor that pushes the pads down is making the most annoying noise from it scraping the rotor while I'm driving, I'll probably just remove them since its driving me crazy and I don't think it will make any difference in the braking ability.

Its the pieces at the top of this picture.

I used the ones from the Legend, I dident do anything different with those.

I may just cut a notch in the center so it doesn't ride on the rotor an make the annoying grinding noise at all speeds.

Update:

Good news:
I removed that piece of brake hardware and there's no more annoying noise coming from the rear brakes all of the time.

Bad News:
I need a new Se-i proportioning valve. So if any of you can get me one it would be much appreciated and I'll pay for your time to remove it.

great work man, I'll keep an eye out for any se-i's I'm pretty sure my dad said there was another one when he went to the jy with my sister not too long ago.

I got $20 plus the cost of the part and shipping, for the first person to get me one. I'd like to get it installed before the 14th since that the next autocross.
