Which R32 Strut Brace

[Roy]

As per above. I have had to remove my Cusco brake stopper because it hit my Plazmaman plenum. I have seen strut braces that have master cylinder stoppers in them but have no idea of which brand.

Any takers?

I have aNISMO strut brace and definitely has one. I bought it new about 4 months ago. I think that I bought it from www.greenline.jp if you find it on their website it says that brace comes with the brake master cylinder stopper.

Cusco do one. I got mine from Greenline but had to email them & ask as it was not listed.

Same as the normal strut braces except the drivers side mount has the bits on it for the brake stopper.

Noob question, what is the point of the master cylinder stopper?

[R32 TT]

Get a buddy to press the brake pedal in your car while you look under the bonnet. If he pressed hard you'll see the brake booster moves. It's flexing on the mounts.

A stopper essentially braces this and can give you a slightly better feel.. Not a lot of difference in my opinion though.

I noticed I had abit less pedal travel when trying to mash the peddal to the firewall with the cusco stopper, depends on the age and how far travelled the car is.

i had the same thing with my plazaman, cusco strut brace and separate cusco master cylinder stopper - was rubbing - put in a decent engine torque damperner, one with a little bit of give - never had a prob with hitting or rubbing since and not screwed engine mounts or anything else either

Ahhh okay, can't say i have ever had a problem with the feel of the brake pedal, but i have stock gts-t brakes so probably wouldnt be able to feel it anyway.

R32 or R33? R32 clashes on mine.

Not paying 3 times what my engine is worth for a ti one either May attack my Whiteline one with a welder and see what I can butcher up

Thanks people

R32 gtst just like yours

Have a bit 15mm gap between stopper and Plenum when normal after few track days noticed a small rub mark wearing away was from engine torque pushing engine over under load. Engine dampener on that side worked a treat no probs at all.

Maybe look at that?

Roy, on the GTRuk forums theres a guy selling alloy BMC stoppers. They might be smaller in size compared to the cusco ones if you were to stumble across one.

Will look at the UK ones over the weekend , thanks
