I have honda discs and run a standard mini master with no problems, you should bea able to acheive a rock hard pedal, mine you only have to just touch and it will stop you well. I'd look elsewhere for your problem, make sure you have the right master, there are two sizes a .70 and .75" bore...i think you want the larger one.. Check everything else, the calipers may need to have a kit put through them, they might not be bled properly, lots of things to look at. There isn't an easy swap from another car that i know of, i have seen a couple done before though. |
