Large Disc Brake for Myvi Help!!!

[chrissiew]

Any Sifu can give me the info if i change the myvi standard brake to a bigger disc brake, will it effect the ABS malfunction?

 

[Doink]

if the larger disc cannot fit the ABS sensor and the ABS track ring then your ABS wont be running.

 

[chrissiew]

If change the bigger disc brake and remain the ABS function, what is the suggestion & what can i do?

 

[Doink]

find a bigger caliper and disc set with ABS sensor same with myvi ones...else...i dun think can d.
best is disable the ABS...not many ppl can appretiate ABS.

Change to half-cut. Use EG, I'm changing to one soon too.

Some one selling the conversion kit modified from others car model brake..

Just plug n play while ABS will still function.

I got news from my foreman.get a better brake pads and it will bite better.i might get one soon for my vivi...now luckily havent vibrate
one point to ponder.do u step on the brake very harshly...like frequent an abrupt stopping?
if u answer yes then try to change habit to make a better braking.
i did a firm and constant brake so the pads will bite the disc better and evenly.
didnt pose many problem so far.

For myvi disc brake i think u just use a better brake pad n disc rotor is enough. If ur one is K3-vet then it might need better brake.

 

[ninicoco20]

i m using EG brake
1 fren with AE brake
1 fren with RX7 brake
1 fren with DC2 brake

All no ABS problem

May i know how many inch size of ur rims?

 

[^bAbym310n^]

min rims clearance is 15"
so if you are on stock rims then kinda of hard
but as i kno thy said can b install using stock rims but must use spacer

 

[chrissiew]

Im using 15 inch rim now.

 

[K2 stanley]

All Brother here, where can i get the eg or AE brake set?

You can get it from half cut shops :) i got mine from another forumer but it's EK brakes which is similar with EG and I would say the brake really perform well :) but make sure you have at least 15" rims because it doesn't really fit well in 14" stock rim :)
