Re: new brakes getting hot!!
-
Are both sides that hot or just one? Be sure and check both sides.
I don't think they should get that hot and I'm not sure you can compare a race vehicle to a street driven vehicle. Anyways, I would check to see if the master cylinder piston is not returning far enough to allow the fluid to return to the master cylinder, therefore keeping pressure on the calipers after you use the brakes the first time. I don't know what all you changed or what pieces you may have used from each brake system so it is really hard to diagnose this kind of problem. You might try opening a bleeder screw on one of the calipers after you have used the brakes to see if there is any residual pressure in the system.
