6speedmanual Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Probably more accurate to ask for large bore master cylinder? P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stationary M25 Traveller Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Assume it must be longer from pivot to pedal, as it can't be any different from pivot to top end without moving master cylinder ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mic Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Its shorter pivot to pedal, requiring more effort to push it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6speedmanual Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Ok. Didn't know existence of such a pedal with different ratio. Mathematically, bigger bore m/cyl similar but achieved different way. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z3MCJez Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Dignity, You can heel / toe with a standard pedal. The key is to get the spacing between the pedals right, and to have the accelerator in the right place relative to the brake when you're braking. You can adjust the accelerator position by bending the pedal / changing the stop and adjusting at the throttle body. Jez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dignity Posted September 13, 2011 Author Share Posted September 13, 2011 Jez Might also help if I can get all the air out of the rear calipers 😳 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mankee Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Colin, have you taken the pedal box cover off to see if you can raise the brake pedal a bit to suit your heeling and towing? I found that my brake pedal was far too long to be able to heel and toe when I first got the car. Wound it up a little, maybe 20mm or so, and it was much better.

Dignity Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 Hi Mankee, I'll have a look this afternoon. I have a high effort pedal on it's way now so I can experiment a bit. Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
