So the Non-ABS cars just need a 3-way Bubble flare T then?

Lengthened 4140 steering shaft for the 3/4" X-member drop mod. It has Borgeson U-joints.

For a non-ABS car, you need a 3 Tee connector and additional lines to hook up to M/C. Because of the routing of the hard lines to the stock 951 M/C you need to extend the line for front right brake, so it can connect to the 3 Tee connector. You also need to add a line from the 3 Tee connector to the front brake port of the BMW M/C

Will the 944 M/C reservoir fit the BMW or do you have to go with the BMW reservoir?

SSI Performance

The 944 reservoir fits the BMW master cylinder.

So has anyone else done this?

I just moved to calipers comparable in size to big reds with stock turbo calipers on the rear. The 255s lock up quick... After about 3 and a half inches of pedal movement. Bled and bled to no avail so I don't really think this is an air bubble issue.

You can apparently buy one of these BMW masters rebuilt for the same price as a used 951 unit.

I see Pelican has this for $185 http://www.pelicanparts.com/cgi-bin/...2F88%2520%2520

Did you move your stock front calipers to the rear? If you did, theres your problem, not your master cylinder. I dont even see why you'd upgrade your calipers to anything bigger than turbo S brakes unless you were tracking the car ( heat dissipation, clamping force from 140+mph ) . Aggressive brake pads and wide front tires with 200 treadwear or lower rating will seriously decrease stopping distance with stock calipers, maybe you'd even be happy with it.

I still dont know why guys spend tons of money on a "big brake kit" and then go on to keep the stock tire width and stock pads. Maybe for the appearance?

My big brake kit was cheaper than a turbo S setup and I'm using stock rear calipers. (And ok, they do look pretty cool too)
Its kind of funny because I'm getting rear lockup on a 5/18 prop valve, the fronts aren't getting enough pressure or something.

I've already ordered the bmw master which was kind of a pain because everywhere was either sold out, return and rebuild, or $200+

if thats the case why not just get a portioning valve?
