When I put mine on, all I did was put them in place, bled them, and had little peddle, less than before, so, do the reverse brake thing. The rear drums are self adjusting, can't manually adjust them easily, an its said to go in reverse, and hit, stab, the brakes, this adjusts the rears, if there is any adjustment left. Took me a lot of start stops to get them good, well, better. can't remember, a dozen start stops. I recon as I need new drums and pads, but tossing up on the idea of Joes disc set up. They work fine, but could be better. Have a go at that, it will help, no major wow factor is going to happen, but it will improve the peddle feel. |

The 1.3 master cyl won't fit your maruti. The firewall is substantially different. Easiest way to get it to fit is to chop the section of the firewall needed out of a 1.3 wreck and cut/shunt it into your maruti. A new 1.0 genuine maruti master cyl can be had from suzistore for ~$250. http://www.suzistore.com.au/shopexd.asp?id=866 |
