WTF is up with your fail hand position and shuffle-*****? You look like you're crunking.

We also can't see your feet nor data so we don't know if you're braking like a man or not.

No you don't. You can swap to FC T2 rear calipers and vented rotors in the rear. I wish I could convince someone to build them, but they say they aren't needed (minus Martin at Monster Miata that uses an 11" wilwood disc).

Quick version:

Buy this (or the like) install it under the hood as usual
Flyin' Miata : Chassis : Brakes : Complete adjustable brake proportioning kit
Very carefully cut the adjuster **** off of the threaded rod coming out of the valve. The trick is to trim around the edge of the **** so it can be split open and removed from the threaded rod, so the rod remains intact. Do not cut the threaded rod or damage its threads.

Buy one of these:

Route the adjuster cable with the **** mounted on the dash, in the cab, wherever you can reach it. Thread the other end of the cable onto the valve rod (the one the **** was cut off of) and loctite it into place.

Done

Does the **** that comes with the basic prop valve kit come off any way without cutting? Or is it somehow glued on? Thanks.

nevermind, question wasn't really related to OP's topic, started a new thread.

I am just wondering, if some of the recommendations is to adjust the wilwood to fully bias to the rear, then why can I run without proportioning valve at all? That is, removing the factory proportioning valve.

Sure you can, if you know that's what you want, all the time.

Some cars/setups that works, but it means you dont have a **** to adjust more rearward when it rains or more forward when you move to stickier tires.

you can definitely get some rear lock up in some places with rear-bias all the way. depends on a combination of the track, the tires, and the spring rates you run.

I didn't notice it, but my wife noticed my rears locked up on a few occasions while at T11 CMP.

Also, similar to what Hustler said earlier, the prop valve is really helpful for trail braking, more so than lock-ups...unless you only do your braking in a straight line...

Fast forward a year and I have this rear set up and a prop valve and love it.

Also means I have the same 11" vented discs all around, so I can "rotate" discs when the fronts get low. Each time I buy 2 replacement discs, I put those on the front and move the worn ones to the rear. And taking one replacement 11" rotor with me to the track covers me for all four corners too.
