After a really long wait since 4pm, the servo finally got installed. The pedal is much stiffer than before, and still have a small room for soft braking, which is nice. Hard braking is however not really up to my expectations. The brake feels really hard, but then it somehow doesn't really have the "fly out of the car" feeling.

Maybe the Advan DBs are really good even in the rain, but I had a hard time trying to lock the brakes as upon leaving the "soft" zone the brake feels stiff and hard to be pushed further.

that's why i prefer to use civic vi rs brake servo compared to evo one .

I went for another drive to get used to the brakes. I'd say that they feel much nicer now since I'm getting used to pushing harder to get the power i want. It's actually allowing me to have a pretty good control over the amount of power i want without having to move my leg much.

Is it possible to get my bumper heated up and reshaped? The bottom right of the bumper is protruding outwards cause of the time when i parked too far over the kerb. It's a problem now cause the car is lowered. sweat.gif

After the soft zone, is the hard zone. The "hard zone" is the caliper makan habis.
Once reach hard zone, use full power press on the pedal, your car will stop instantly =) got ABS lain cerita la
a lot better than the original servo , org is sucks

Yup biggrin.gif. The braking power is pretty awesome now.

Previously your persona has 4 disc brakes or rear drum?

I'm quite satisfied with my persona's braking power, stock, 4 disc brakes.

To add on, there is no more screeching sound. The method to condition the new brake pads do wonders.

My drum brakes at the rear hardly do anything. The front brakes can be really hot to the touch but the rear can be just mildly warm.

Much stronger than the original. It is strong enough to make you jerk forward hard. Just isn't as hard as I imagined it would be laugh.gif

Changing the absorber mounting didn't eliminate the kok kok sound when going over rough roads, but the steering wheel no longer vibrates when the sound appears. The installation of the new servo somehow reduced the kok kok sound by quite a bit.

For those who are using the B-Line/M-Line Personas with front discs and rear drums, if you want to get a rough idea of how the Evo 6 servo feels like, pull on the hand brake hard while you're driving, and while you're doing that, press on the brake pedal. The pedal should feel much stiffer than usual and "max out" just after a short travel. I normally engage my hand brake when I first start driving the car for the day to warm them up quickly to stop them from making noise, and this is also how I found that the pedal is much stiffer than usual when I press on the brake pedal. This is quite similar to how little you have to press the brake pedal to engage the pads fully with the Evo 6 servo.

Mine before change the servo, feel nothing even hard braking ( adjustable hard enuf =) )
after change servo now have the feel throw forward
Change the disc rotor with slotted and hole even better.

When brake servo upgraded, the braking power increase, the disc will hotter than usual ( depends the way u press yr brake la)
Note: My car I drive up to genting quite frequent , brake power sucks, making the downhill harder @@ Auto car

Brake power sucks, before or after servo change?

Ok one of the ways to eliminate screeching brake sound is engaging handbrake while just starting to drive?

Only for drum brakes since they do both the job of braking and holding. Probably not applicable for disc brakes on the persona since the braking surface is separate. You can however apply the brakes gently while moving to heat them up quickly. I normally do this if it has been raining.
