finishing the brakes — logbook Toyota Corolla Levin 1999

UPD:
completed, sort of!
it seems that he doesn’t piss anywhere, he’s happy)
shortened the highway by three meters, probably, it should affect the reaction, threw out the ABS motor (-3 kg, by the way))
went through the rear brakes, new discs and pads, gave the drain another chance, but I smell on the trail I will still grumble the season from ryksy.
I redid the front hoses, it became more correct, but I still have to fool around, I think I’ll also put an inch GTZ)))

In general, it happened, it turned out, the second third day I hang out until 3 a.m. in the garage, background:

- after the bodywork and painting, they didn’t weld the platform that holds the horizon sensor (it is also the right SRS sensor) I had nowhere to screw it, it just hung on the wire, it caused the ABS to work frantically, you stand still, press the pedal, the ABS works.
- the role of the regulator (between the front and rear axles) is performed by the ABS motor (fine adjustment, the main restrictors are in a separate static regulator)
- well, in general, the constant work of the ABS got me, and the ABS itself is ancient, its work has not delivered to me for a long time joy and after 2 seasons and new brakes in front, I learned to do without it, in general, I turned off the ABS, but the motor hung in the wrong position, the rear axle practically does not slow down, the car bites :(

in general, I began to buy everything I needed a long time ago:
— Wilwood regulator
— tubes, tees, a device for flaring, and so on

and the devil gave me a jerk that it was this week, before the race in Smolensk, all this had to be put

on Tuesday evening, he began to dismantle almost all the engine compartment pipes of the brake line, at some point they did not want to come out intact, and I had to cut them, that's all, there is no turning back!

I started installing a new system, the tubes bend well, it’s easy to lay, the force device for 1500 r is what, but on a professional (6-7 tr) the toad is strangling)
I start trying to screw the tip of the tube into the wilwood - hell, it doesn’t fit, fucking American thread :( well, I think trynda, Smolensk is covered (
after wandering around the garage a little, thinking I found a solution, drove the thread with our tap 10 * 1 and everything became OK)

in general, he bent the tubes, put them on, there was not enough tube on the left side of the meter, it was half past three, he went home.

yesterday, on the way home from work, I stopped at a store, took another 3 meters of tubes with a margin, came to the garage, held out.

then he fiddled with the ears on the body, the car was originally with MacPherson, the ears look to the side, it is necessary in them, tore them off, screwed them on self-tapping screws, look down)

then I started to fence new reinforced lines, I was busy with crimping fittings, it worked out from the 3rd time, I poked the hose back and forth for a long time so that it would not rub anywhere, it seems ok, but due to the design features of the suspension, I should have redone it, for now I will twist steering wheel no more than a turn in each direction :)

still plans to change the drives, drained the oil from the box, changed the drives, at 3 am, went home.

today it is necessary to have time to sort out the rear brakes and pump the whole system, something is sure to get stuck somewhere, in general, today there is something to do until 3 in the morning :) then collect the intake (it interferes with changing the tubes)

the second day on energy drinks, it’s possible to get enough sleep after the race in Smolensk only (

Hmm Pash, it was necessary to start bothering with this earlier then! What if now a jamb will come out? You may not have time to fix it ... Yes, and on such untested brakes it will be dumb on such a track as Smolensk to bring down. I don’t even talk about fatigue at all ...
You are a maniac in short! :)

tin! from my own experience with brakes, I will say that all foundation work is fixing jambs and eliminating leaks later. So hold on Current in front of the road is better to ride around the area, potest as it should.

il4 27.01.22

yes, today I’m just planning to test and identify leaks, but in principle I did everything right away!
of course I’ll ride around the area, at least I need to twist the regulator, but before the time it wasn’t vaaasche ((

Fascinating story, but without pictures it's never clear!

And this one, you would put a parachute in the trunk just in case)

I also drove with the abs turned off, and I was not happy with the brakes, then when I dismantled the abs unit and changed the regulator on the engine shield, I found that the tube to the rear wheel was generally dry, so it’s really better not just to turn off the abs, but to completely replace the system

either put the ABS in order, or eliminate, cho

I also have the impression that the rear axle does not brake. abs is off too. it just doesn't work.)

what to do to slow down? :)
