I'm sorry to ask such a dumb question but I am really going to be limited on my ability to adjust the brake bias on my car before track time and just thought someone with a similar setup might be able to ball park me. I have corrado rotor fronts and 1.8 rears with HP plus pads (chew up rotors on my civic but otherwise work great), will be running nt-01's at the track. Hoping for dry pavement. I will be doing some adjustment, obviously, but can anyone tell me how many turns they generally use?

I also removed the Ebrake from the rear calipers, I had to slightly clearance the backing plates on the pads to fit the stock 1.8 brackets.

I should really do a separate post to show all my mods together, but I think all the pics are posted here and the booster thread now.

Your 1.8 rear calipers plus this and add some sport rotors - ![](https://www.miataturbo.net/attachments/suspension-brakes-drivetrain-49/26339-wilwood-prop-valve-settings-mtuned_rear_brk.jpg?dateline=1318556253)
Rear kit allows you to install 10.84" Miata factory Sport Brake Rotors to replace the OEM Miata 9.89" rotors.
Now I can finally start getting some good braking in the rear 1.8 vs sports:
