Add to that the fact that the s2000 weighs 33% more than the Minx (2800 v 2100), and I expect the pedal feel to be somewhere between power and manual brakes. Should be fine, but I can always make improvements if needed (that's my standard answer if you haven't noticed ).
that's cool FF. something for me to try later on. i was thinking now that my corolla swap is done, i can get back on my nova. i scored a set of disc brake spindles with rotors. just needs calipers and i was hoping to use the dodge power wagon disc master i got. no room for a booster in my nova as well. are you planning to use a combo valve on the minx?
