Id like to know also whether this makes any difference to braking.

improves pedal feel only

Might be okay then, my pedal feel aint that great driving normally round town

I suggest you get the strut brace/brake stopper combo.

Like its been said, improves feel via decreasing firewall flexion. Pedal becomes stiffer (no longer squishy). However you get used to it pretty quickly.

Does it only help when driving and braking hard?

Pity, I already have a strut brace!

improves pedal feel only

Included in doing so, it also stops firewall flex ( and possible cracking ) experienced mostly on the track under HARD braking. A worthwhile upgrade to any car IMO.

That is the same one as i have.bought it from ebay as well.firmer feel to the brakes.like wink said not so squishy.

Anyone got a pic of it on the car?

my nismo strut brace has a master cyliner stopper integrated into it.

Unique autosports in sydney sell a copy of the nismo design. it's not as light as the genuine one tho

Yep, pic can be found here: http://srandy.com:81 under my brake stopper guide.

Looks like an easy thing to do, worth the money though?

Or is it better spent on good pads?

[RANDY]

Well.. i'd definately do it regardless. If you have good bitey pads, you'll feel the difference. =-]

Yeah my brakes dont feel too great, wouldve expected more for 4 pot calipers. My pulsar brakes used to pull better in city driving.

Pads are new when I bought the car but dont seem great.

It is so cheap u cant pass it up.I think that the more feedback you get from the ancillaries of the car the better u can make your judgement.

You know what i mean (im my best pommy voice).
