which kit are you guys using the kens kustom or the chasebays or what?
this is going into a da i will be trying to reuse the factory lines with this im doing for clearance

 

Jon used a Ken's kit, but just made all of his own brake lines.

 

Kens Kustom Chassis.

 

Kkc here

 

KKC as well here

 

TILTON alway the way with a QSD back plate RICHIEWERKS/5150 custom brake lines.

 

i didnt know the kkc came with a resivoir thats why i looked at the chasebays how much is the kens kustom i may just order my staging brake with it but gotta send the car to be caged

 

Kkc uses wilwood masters.

They have 2 reserviors in every package.

You have the option to install the big or small reservoir.

Bought my brake master and clutch master from kkc.

If i remember it right 130 plus shipping for the brake master kit.

 

Apart from looks and clearance, is there any benefit to running a booster delete?

 

Like Zero said, kkc comes with a wilwood kit including small and large reservoir as well as a remote mount kit. I ordered my cnc brake and booster delete at the same time but pretty sure booster delete is now around $130 even though the website advertises $110.

 

clearance is why im doing a booster delete

 

jon this is stanley if you didnt know how did you decide to do you staging brake lines im probably going to t into mine so i have rear brakes lol

 

Jon's rear brakes are only functional when using his staging brake. He has a reservoir on his setup. The front brakes are controlled by his pedal.

I have a staging brake in my car now and I just T'd the lines going to the rear together and ran them through the CNC brake setup and then did another T and let them run back to the rear. That way I can still control all 4 brakes with my foot pedal.

What he said lol. And yeah I know lol

 

yeah me too did it because of fitment issue with my Magnus manifold, also it looks clean too. The pedal feel will be somewhat different but it works well and not too far from the oem setup.

also rocking the kkc cnc 412 stage brake in the car too...

 

Kends kustom in here

 

Willwood wit qsd plate.

 

on the kkc master cylinder is there just one fitting?

 

downstar

 

Yes only one port for the fitting. You have t it to the prop valve. Since oem has 2 ports.

 

thanks

 

I just ran a line off both front wheels to a T fitting and then ran one line from there to the master cylinder. You really dont want the rear to be on the foot brake when running skinnies. The hand brake can be used to help slow the car down if the front brakes arent enough but at least this way you can apply the right amount of pressure to the rear to keep from locking them up.

 

Quick question for you guys running the Ken's Kustom booster delete, what bore size came with your kit? Mine came with the 3/4" bore. Isnt that to small? I mean, its smaller than the stock size of 13/16" on my civic (correct me if Im wrong).

The thing I want to know is, will the 3/4" bore size be large enough, or should I switch to the 7/8" bore? Im doing a front brake off the pedal with stock size civic ex brakes or integra sized brakes.

 

i was thinking same thing..

 

Im not even sure you have a bore size option so the 3/4 must work fine considering the amount of cars that have been using the kkc mc for years.
