Exclamation Braking question

All,

i have upgraded to a 99 spec brakes in my 94 FD. it's just a drop in.
unfortunately, i got the fronts only. it's larger caliper, larger disc. different caliper cylinder size front trailing and leading.

on some track events.... i feel like my front brakes are too tight on some corners.. it feels like the front wheels are screeching when i brake before corners.

normal drivings or hard braking of the car below 120 km/h is exceptionally good... stops the car well.

my question will be.....

does changing the front brakes to a better brakes messes up the original brake bias ?
what's the consequences of having more front brakes than a balanced front and back ?

its sure will if the calipers pistons are bigger than the stock ones. this will make the bias more to the front as you are suggesting.
