yo bros...
after installing the filter.. now i felt that my car needs extra grip on the brake now.. any1 can suggest wat i can do wif the braking system? i'm talking about the minimum cost to get g00d braking.. not reffering 2 cheap..
bro shackks, i c tat u haf asked lots of Qs & As in g2c.. haf u done anything for the braking system?
talking about braking. wanna give a mini review on my 2 week old bendix titanium.
braking feel is a bit better compared to stock. more positive but have to learn how to modulate coz it is only effective when it heats up a bit. so u got to really press the brake padel hard to get it working. other than that it is not too bad for its price.
cannot comment on brake dust coz i just washed the car 2 days ago... haha
the only bad thing is that it started making screetching noise. especially when on half pressure (slowing down) but it will not happen if u really brake hard.
so i guess it is semi performance type pad, but compared to bendix metal king gold on my waja, these are more forgiving in a sence that they do not bite as hard. i recomend it for someone who preferes comfort to performance, but for me, i think i will live with it till it finishes. heehee
BTW, this was tested with bendix dot5.1 brake fluid (and it is with ABS system)
my next mod (if got the $$) will be braided hoses.
