BA brakes, AU master cylinder issue

Having said that, they now will happily lock the wheels on the black top and make the ABS work overtime where the old brakes didn't even come close most of the time and I reacon I slashed 3 car lengths or about 15m off of a hard stop from 110.

Hey Matt, yeah calipers definitely on the correct way up, I remember thinking what a bugger of a position the bleeders are in. So basically being a series 1 master cylinder (smaller bore) it should actually be easier to apply the brakes than if I went to the later model (larger bore) cylinder? I will let the brakes bed in a bit and see how it comes up I guess. Thanks for your input.

Pretty much yeah you should have less pedal effort but things like pedal ratios etc also have an effect but yes let them bed in first.
