I still have the stock proportioning valve in the car.
I think the brakes favor the fronts a little too much. I smoke the fronts, never the rears. I'd like to put on some junk tires and see if I can get to the point where when I apply max brake pressure, the rears lock just after the fronts.

james,
thats fair. your right.. my set up may not have been exactly the same as the next persons... or even exactly stock. I wasn't trying to re-open the debate, but wanted to let any new person reading along know that its at least a debateable topic. I agree with you. use caution.. everyone's mileage may vary in regards to the T. and for the record, I have a T and an adjustable valve in my new car. (mostly because I couldn't afford a dual mc adjustable set up, plus this is lighter than that) brant |
