Hello everyone,
First off I do apologize if this has been covered a hundred times before, I've been searching on here for the past hour but have not come up with anything 100% conclusive.
I've just picked up an EK9 / UK DC2 five stud hub conversion, with brakes. Obviously I have also got myself a 1" master cylinder and servo from an EK9 so I don't have any excessive pedal travel when I come to fit the bigger brakes.
The final part that I'm stuck with though is the brake proportioning valve, from searching on here I believe the EK9 has a 40/40 PV?
The hubs are all from an ABS model Type R and will be going on my Civic Jordan, which too has ABS and rear disc brakes as standard. So would I be right in saying that my Jordan is likely to have the 40/40 proportioning valve as standard too due to the fact that it comes with rear discs as standard, and that I'd only need to source and fit an EK9 40/40 PV if my car was being converted from drums to discs on the rear, such as on a lower spec EJ/EK Civic?
Any help really is appreciated, even if it's as much as 'yeah, you're right'.
Thanks a lot.
