For Better or Worse I own a DeLorean!
1983 Grey Manual, VIN #16409, Fresno, California
What is the brake bias on the ones you manufacture Josh?
Currently resurrecting Vin # 11789 - One of the batch of 50 exported to the Middle East in 1982.

We had a great meeting these days in Austria with >30 Deloreans, some even took part at a safty
driving class.
I filmed many and saw big differences in braking and handling.
Best car was one of Wolfgangs World Tour Deloreans. (front and rear same tire size, extra fuel weight
in the front...) Incredible stable handling !!! Not comparable at all to a stock Delorean !
All other cars - all of them in very good maintained condition - handled differently.
front brakes locking first,
rear ones locking first
all 4 locking together...
I am very curious what the best setup is for a (almost) stock car.
Does 32/68 ratio mean the rear brakes get more braking force ? or the front ones ?
Has anybody details about this including disc size, brake pads, tire size...?
Any car engineer here ? What do the theories say ?
Any tests done ? Videos ? Simulations ?
Thanks a lot,

Our cast units are stock bias and billet units are 50/50 for our brake system upgrade.

Not with a factory brake configuration. You should maintain the proper bias for how the system is designed. We change the bias along with other components for our specific requirements.
