Did the CH master/booster just bolt up or was there some finessing.
CH master cylinder bolted straight to CE booster but doubt the CH booster would fit. Note however the pipe flare type is different between the CE and CH.

I am running Mini Cooper discs and CH calipers as well. Super easy swap, everything bolts straight up and the brake line/hose fits straight on.
Pedal travel is a little longer, but I honestly think that is down to not bleeding them as well as I could have. I will re-bleed in the next week or so and see how it feels then.
This is correct. You will need to source appropriate discs.I suspected that CH calipers would bolt onto a CE hub. So I’m correct in saying that CH calipers have 130mm bolt spacing and will still run 276mm rotors?

fronts will always looks before the rears. the distrubtion block ensure this. cant recall but theyre split like 70F/30 R so if youre locking rears....ya dun messed upJust wondering if anyone’s had issues with brakes locking up, whilst running the new setup, especially the rears?
If so, any info on combatting that, such as staying with the stock 7/8” master cylinder rather than 1”?
It wouldn't surprise, considering how Mitsubishi liked to use the parts bin for everythingJust had a thought.
For rear disc brake swap, would it be possible to use FTO dust covers, caliper mounting bracket, calipers, handbrake, and then just use the 4x100 hub bearing with a Proton 4x100 rotor?
Both Proton and FTO rotors are 260mm diameter, 10mm solid disc, 41mm height. Where they differ is 4x100 with 64mm centre hole, versus 5x114.3 with 90mm centre hole.
It should be completely possible
I would very much doubt itRandom question, since the facebook auslancer section is asking if the CJ brake calipers fit onto a CE?
No because the caliper bracket bolt spacings are not the same.Random question, since the facebook auslancer section is asking if the CJ brake calipers fit onto a CE?
I’m running 276mm twin piston fronts on stock ce master and it definitely does not feel spongy, I’d say you’ve either got contaminated pads/rotors, bad piston seals, re used copper banjo washers not sealing or air still in your lines, a different master isn’t going to make them feel less spongey, will just change the force required to actuate the pedals as the size of the master piston changesDoes the CH master and booster bolt straight into the CE?
I’ve just done the bigger single piston upgrade with the 256mm slotted rotors and the pedal feels very long and spongy. I’ve done a re-bleed twice but hasn’t gotten much better so hoping the bigger booster/master will fix it. I like a solid hard pedal.
