Changing brake fluid

On stock j-specs with normal hoses and fluid- yes. Bought one after Nic recommended them on another thread. They remove the flex from the master cylinder. Feels like you've had new brakes when you use them afterwards.

Mine is a Cusco one, so I am unable to comment on cheaper variants.

 

Oh right, cool. Ive got an Aristo so I cant use one anyway but I just thought it was basically engine bay decoration :)

Yeah, I was a little sceptical myself, but if Nic recommends then you know he is talking sense.

They are made for other vehicles, so would imagine an Aristo also?

Best PM Nic, he would know ;)

£80 is just ridiculous for that. It's a metal bracket painted blue ffs.

 

Wish I still worked in the machine shop at work. Could cut and fold one of them out in an hour.

 

You're not wrong mate. I managed to get one for £65 fom a guy on e-bay who had sold his Supra.

Even at £65 I was wondering why it was so expensive :search:

However, having used it with stock j-specs I can say its definitely worth it. Brakes should improve more when I fit my Do-Luck lines and some new pads :D

Now that's more like it.

 

Might get myself one of those.

 

Yes, I did mull over that one, but decided the (for me) extra £30 for the Cusco was worth it.

Probably exactly the same, and I'm no label follower by any means, but thought £30 exra wouldn't hurt.

Sure you guys can sympathise with my logic :p
