Many years ago, a few well known TR6 guys got together to document brake up=
grades and the impact on braking distances.=20

As I recall, they did stopping distances as follows:
=E2=9E=A2 Stock front and rear brakes with .70=E2=80=9D rear wheel cylinder=
s
=E2=9E=A2 Stock Front and .75=E2=80=9D rear wheel cylinder
=E2=9E=A2 Toyota Front Calipers and I don=E2=80=99t remember what size rear=
 wheel cylinder they used. As I recall they didn=E2=80=99t do the Toyota ca=
lipers with both the stock and the .75=E2=80=9D rear wheel cylinders so tha=
t piece of data was missing.

Anybody have a link to that article? And it wasn=E2=80=99t a Buckeye projec=
t.
