Another piece of imformation he told me was your allowed to have a ajustable  proportion vavle if it is not easly accessable eg under the car or covered with somrthing so it cant accidentaly be bumped

good to know pete. my rear brakes lock up before my fronts. i recon i need different size wheel cylinders but i would have a clue how to know how to get it right.

got a quote from a bloke for an adjustable prop valve for 30 bucks.. i recon its the way to go. is that how you fixed your brakes pete?
i put a prop valve on from a hq just on the rears but still getting too much pressure compared with fronts

Ben, the HQ holden and P76's have the value you need, both are in the brake line, on the rail under the booster.

Before using the after market adjustable proportional valve make sure your insurance includes that modification as a lot wont because boy racers etc use these valves for burnouts
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"
