brakes are a let down

[stevieITR]

ok heres the thing,

i just recently bought my evo4 and i had an integra typeR before this, the brakes on the typeR are far more responsive and alot more sharper than on the evo,

the thing is i havent really figured out exactly wot has been fitted to the car yet but i no for a fact it has green stuff pads all round, braided brake lines and blue racin brake fluid, i was expecting really sharp brakes but they just arent the same as the typeR,

any ideas?

Hi,
what you must understand is that the acceleration and momentum difference have to taken into consideration, these two cars are miles apart in many aspects.

That said, it would be very wise to bleed the brakes, I suspect that the problem will soon be a distant memory indeed.

Let me know how you get on buddy.

My brakes are brilliant on my 4, however i prefer brembos.

Pop you wheels off and check disks and pads. Think about swapping greenstuff pads too. I wouldn't use them on my push bike (though if they have some life left id be tempted to live with them a bit).

i had a accord type r before and the brakes were briliant and now my evo their a lot bigger with brembo calipers and there just not as good
