Default Brake cylinder brace...

Any use for that? Does it make a difference when installed with or without steel braided lines?

i've been trying to find one as well. They are said to make quite a difference in pedal feel, eliminating the flex in the firewall in that area. There are a few people that have them here. With the cusco brace, you need ITR m/c with the forward brake line exiting the m/c upward instead of on an angle like the gsr m/c. I also think someone was working on one(R&D motorsports maybe?).
Who has one of these? Post pics.

Spoon M/C brace has been discontinued for a while, Cusco makes one but might be hard to find, and a local guy around here fabs up his own.

Doesn't look too impossible to fab one up yourself...Then you could make it fit any type of m/c, maybe.
