Randy's RCR40 MKI

My understanding is that it is because the MC is below the caliper. That would result in the fluid draining and overflowing the brake reservoir. That sounds reasonable, but the kit doesn’t include one for the clutch. I wonder if adding one to that line is a good idea.

For those that know…what LBS of a valve works best? Looks like there are at least 2lbs and 10lbs are the common ones?

According to Wilwood, 2 lb is for disk and 10 lb is for drum.

2 lb it is. DO NOT buy the cheap ones. There are several people that have documented on here with trouble with the generic Chinese ones. It’s your life and car, so don’t skimp on this part.

I have pretty much finished the brake lines. I was having some questions about routing the rear flex lines. The rear straight out of the tub bulkhead fittings are pointed just to front of the coil overs. Too close for my comfort level. A friend suggested using Adel clamps on the top of the upright as a solution. It has worked well for years.

It’s good, but I am going to try another route (pun intended). I will try using 90 degree elbow fittings at the tub exits and straight fittings at the calipers. Basically reversed. I am waiting on the parts from Amazon.

More on how it ends up in a later post.

Hi: My brake line has a 90-degree fitting on either end.

Hi Randy, some photos of my calipers, its seems to me that mien are installed in the opposite side ?

Passenger rear (yes, close to coil, but clears fine)

Thx much for the picture. That just seems like unnecessary risk to me. I’m out of town this weekend, but I should have the parts and time to assemble the routing using an elbow at the tub early next week.

I’m looking into the stance lift cups for my build. I see a couple of different versions for the 110 mm. Did you get the 110x40? Also did you just do the front or should I’d front and back? Thanks for your help!

 

[Randy Folsom]

I am using the 110mm cups. I am only installing them on the front. BTW, they sell a larger pump so that the tank is not required.

 

[Pat]

Thanks for getting back. I know they are 110 diameter but they sell different depths I guess. See picture. Do you know the model of the larger pump? Is that the one in the kit?

Sorry, I didn’t pay attention to the depth and stashed the documentation who knows where. The pump that comes with the kit requires a tank. Stance sells a larger pump. Unfortunately, I don’t know the part number, but it is quite a bit larger. This picture came from Don Pirre.

 

[Pat]

Thanks again. I’ll see if I can call them this week and see if they know or search the forum some more to see if I can find the correct size before ordering.

Pat,
The pump for the tankless setup is a Viair 400C. Found it by digging around the StanceParts site

Ok, that’s the pump that comes with the tankless kit. Now I just need to dig around for the 110 cup height.
