Default Question Concerning Master Cylinder for ITR/CTR 5 lug.

Hello,

I have a 95 Integra RS NON ABS with a 40/40 valve & factory brake cylinder & booster.

I had s2000 5 lug installed (dont ask how etc)
My brakes felt like **** with it. I bled & bled & bled.

I wanted to know if I will have this issue with ITR or CTR brakes ?
Should I upgrade my M/C & used my booster ?
If so what should I upgrade to ?

Remember, I have non abs hence I do not think the type-r M/C will work.

Thanks,
John

what do you mean when you say it feels like ****, no pedal? or spongy or it has a normal pedal but you just dont stop?

with the car off 1st push was 1/2 of the pedal until i felt pressure then on the
2nd & 4rd push it got firmer.

once the car was on the pedal dropped to the ground minus a few inches when i pushed in the pedal

now i reinstalled my 4 lug & the pedal is about 80% better.

I used the 15/16's integra RS w/ the 40/40 prop valve

I dont think I can use anything else since I dont have abs.
