Where did you get the dual system brake master?... and what would you recommend to upgrade the brakes... I'm running a Mk2 Vitesse and while the engine, chassis and suspension are quite well sorted the brakes are becoming a worry... it will stop, but the brakes are still not very re-assuring... and a little weak... the pedal always feels somewhat soft, despite the fact that now the entire braking system has been refurbished. I can go to larger disks as there are now 15" wheels on the car.
@lewiar If your system is free of air, you have no leaks, and the brakes are adjusted properly then there are only two things that cause a soft pedal. Problem 1: the master cylinder bore is too small to provide enough fluid to the calipers and slaves.
Another thing that can cause a soft pedal is if the mechanical adjusters on the rear brakes are not set properly. Adjust them up so that the drum starts to drag then back off one or two clicks (depending
Wow, you're still on solid discs. You'll NEED those cool air ducts!

@lillskiten1337 To make your GT6 last longer without doing "too much" is easy. Sell it and put a down payment on a good used Mercedes Benz.
