More fluid/pressure to compress the pistons.

I bought a refurbished 1" mc for a 1990 ex wagon from autozone for $50.

I'm very pleased with my braking, and I still have drums in the rear.

I actaully meant that about the brake cylindar as well. Friend of mine has a GSR one in his hatch, quite a diff in feel. Not a whole lot of ppl that ive met know about that, despite how much sense it makes.
