      I don’t know if I should thank you or be angry that your car is making me spend more money haha.

    Hmm, maybe re-bleed the fronts? I have Dynalites on mine with a 1.6L master and I have no problem locking up the fronts.

    Thank you for this video! This video is way more helpful than the supposed "good" customer service of chase bays. I'm going to try this method of bleeding later.
    I got their brake booster eliminator kit with their brake bias valve, and was having weak braking problem. Inquired for help, and let's just say their reply was pretty useless.

      @@shrimp562 hello. I returned my chase bays one, since then, I tried different set up. I'm now running a honed development brake booster adapter which requires drilling higher for leverage. It's working well now with the right pads compound

    I'm having issues with fluid leaking at the front line adapter, any suggestions?

      I just put this on my car. You really have to crank it together. If it keeps leaking, keep tightening it.

    Do you hard mount the prop. valve?

    • @NappMotorsports
      @NappMotorsports  4 роки тому

      No I didn’t. You can but it’s definitely not required.

  • @richardosborne7641
    @richardosborne7641 2 роки тому +1

    So with your factory proportion valve there wasn't a lot of power going to the rear? And then with the wilwood proportion valve you was able to get more pressure to the rear is that correct?

    • @NappMotorsports
      @NappMotorsports  2 роки тому

      I used to be so sure, but I am now 99% sure that you’re correct haha.

      Miatas are not balanced the best with their front/rear brake balance. This helps fix this issue

      I have the same will wood proportion valve. If I turn it ccw it will increase my rear braking correct? My rear brakes are weak . Think the valve is all the clockwise.

    So in order to bleed the valve you have to screw it in all the way

    Did you notice difference once it was all set up?
    How do you like a year after installing it?

    • @NappMotorsports
      @NappMotorsports  2 роки тому +1

      I was definitely able to balance the bias out better, especially with the wilwoods up front. I definitely don’t regret it a year later.
