ManwithSupra Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Hi All, I have been thinking about getting one of these, however i have just noticed some sites say that you cannot use this with ABS. Can someone confirm why you cant? Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwilkinson Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 That might be for a left hand drive car. I have one on mine and it fits without incident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManwithSupra Posted January 6, 2011 Author Share Posted January 6, 2011 Do these make a noticeable difference? They increase pedal feel, but dont do much if anything for increasing braking performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David P Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 If you have a TRD strut brace, you can do it like this and save yourself a few pints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Do these make a noticeable difference? Yes, they firm up the pedal feel and transfers more of the power to the brakes. With the engine running get some one to press the brake pedal and see how much flex there is in the BMC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManwithSupra Posted January 7, 2011 Author Share Posted January 7, 2011 If anyone has one of these lying about i may (cough) point you in this direction.. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?236558-Cusco-master-cylinder-stopper&p=2998566#post2998566 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Whiffin Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I fitted one of these to my car last year, definately makes a difference with pedal feel. Have a look to see how much the master cylinder flexes when the brake pedal is applied. Just waiting on a price back from Japan for you Richard.
