right i think i have found the problem then, the brakes where mint before i put the abs ont he car, the abs is awesome wont go back but it was never the same under normal braking.

I had a look today my abs 3000cc m3 stuff has a feed and return to the master from the abs unit, i thought these where part of the master cylinder but they feed from teh rezivour, so ive just bought a 323 master from a mate and hopefully fit it this weekend and see how it works.

I have a biest valve inline, its fully open atm and there isnt much going on at the rear.

pads are ds3000 fronts, and mintex 1155 rears.

i awas looking at vented rears too using e46 330d calipers and z4 disks, means cutting the mounts off for the caliper, but i know a few people who have done this to fit ford calipers on the back...

thanks for the advice again!!!
