e30 brakes

[zoom-motorsports 0]

hey wonder if anyone had the same problem that i have.

my 85 e30 320 brakes feel real crap in the fact that the pedal goes down half way before anything happens???

i have no air in the system what so ever. Is there a way of adjusting the pedal to get a better feel at all??

There is a joint in the passengers footwell but most e30 brakes are abit sloppy.

What are the condition of your brake pads/shoes to start with? If they're worn the pedal will sink quite abit, specially if the rear shoes are unadjusted.

Check your brake lines, 20 year old rubber doesn't really help.
