Performance brake system for tx3

[kenken]

any performance rotor and brake pads available for tx3 sampan?

 

[tonytony]

Try upgrading ur brakeline... pro-rs brake hose kit

Heard good things about braided hoses, u can even stick back with your ori pads

Am thinking of changing soon for me

 

[kenken]

are these expensive??
coz recently many ford/mazda converting to nissan/mazda 4 pot..

 

[tonytony]

not ex, check thier price listing on the www... around RM280/set.
can change calipers, master pump, pads....all no use if ur pressure isn't there...my opinion coz i'm suffering from spongy braking now on my ride

 

[kenken]

my caliper is 22 14v..how bout yours?

so u changed all these stuff? and then u get better brake feeling?

 

[tonytony]

I changed :
1. Master pump (2nd hand)
2. Calipers (2nd hand)
3. Pads (Metal King)
4. Fluid (Dot 4)

same feeling on my brakes. it started when i rear calipers jammed on the road once, then i kep on driving, no choice. since then, my brakes have been spongy

 

[kenken]

thanks for your advice bro..im working on it now..ehehe

 

[tonytony]

so bro, any update on ur brake project ?

 

[kenken]

oh..not yet...im broke this month.
will do these next month.
anyways i asked for the price of EBC slotted rotor. the price is RM1100. haha...i was shocked to hear that.

 

[pardypeople]

1100 for all 4 or only front?? if u hav credit card then u can try buyin online from US market...tx3 sampan in US is known as Ford Escort GT(be sure of ur year make) and I saw a lots of stuffs over the net and looks interesting.....u might not sleep checking out this parts....hahaha...try it

 

[kenken]

yes bro..i did check on those stuff..coz i know US has much more performance parts for ford and mazda!hehe..the price was quoted by Pentagon Enterprise. RM1100 for front two only..hehe

1100 for front is expensive larr...i think if buy online EBC all four aso wont go more than 1600...best part is can upgrade to five lugs...juz hav to change the nuckle...hahaha

bro..5 lug means use lantis v6 5 lug brake and knuckle or some other cars? like RB20? or FC FD?Im interested. i dont think FR knuckle can fit FF. I did some researches last time, it seems that VR-4 and EVO1,2,3 brake caliper and rotor can fit in with minor modifications.

 

[tonytony]

id say caution is modding knuckles/calipers from other car models into urs. i believe the failure rate is quite high when doing that. better to spend some money to get parts that are meant and fit perfectly for ur model.
just my op coz braking system is quite the important feature in a vehicle

 

[kenken]

yaya..its not easy to modify. my fren's saga using vr4 knuckles but the camber cannot even adjust to 0degrees have to stay in positive.
