ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

    Front Rotors and Rear Drums...Brakes Problem

    Hey all,, yesterday my car failed to pass the annual re inspection bcaz of the brakes, i changed the Fr Brake Pads and the Rear Brake Shoes ,, but the rear Brakes and the parking brakes are not good at all, the front rotors are already worn out so i bought the New After market front rotors Made in Taiwan ,, shud i go for the after market rotors?will take the rear drums to the machine shop for a slight tool, the brake pedal doesnt do anything weird, but it viberates on high speeds,the master cylinder is not leaking at all,, shud i change it or not? the pedal never goes down to the floor,,if i press the brakes hard, the car doesnt stop like the way it should b,, what to do? after market rotors are good or not?shud i change the drums as well?or will the machine shop do the trick?what symptoms are there for a weak master cylinder? and ofcourse the proportion Valve,,?what to do?

    Since the rear are drums, just replace the shoes with new ones.

    If you changed out the front pads and rotors already, make sure you bleed the brake lines so there isn't any air in the lines.
    That should solve your braking issue.

    And check to see if you have enough brake fluid.
    If its low, check for leaks from the brake lines and replace the necessary ones, and bleed the brake lines.
