Brake Distance Comparison

Brake Distance 30 mph to Stop (ca. 48 km/h)

I wanted to compare braking distances and create a chart based on them, using the manufacturer's official figures. For the Roadster to have the same 10-meter braking distance as a modern Golf, it would have to be traveling at only 28 km/h (17.4 mph). Still, I’m going to give it a try anyway.


The Brakecylinders

Some problems



left: the new brakecylinder from Tony ( a Landrover part RTC3626 / RTC3627 )
middle: the alloy cylinder used before
right: the original iron cylinder
 

Tony also send me a set of new brake hose. But the hole on the new brake hose is wider.







Also the thread for the banjo bolt is smaller. Tony wrote that i can make a new thread for the old banjo bolt or i have to look for an adapter.For safety reasons, i don´t want to make a new thread.
What do to ?  new brake hose with smaller banjo bolt ?
Are there any other landrover-cylinders with the bigger thread available ?




Sorry for the measurement in mm. I know that it must be inch.


the new brake lines have a diameter of 6 mm
