Nope, Discontinued for a year or so now I would love to have one. I will have some MC Braces That Do not need line rebending etc available in a few months, I will also try out the Cusco MC Braces to see which ones will fit etc.

Does anyone have a link to a pic of what these braces look like (out of the car). I didn't get very far on Cusco's site; I don't speak Japanese.

And who else, besides Jeff, has used one? Do they make that much of a difference?

Just have your friend sit in the car and press the brake pedal and watch
how far the MC moves. Its amazing more people dont want these.

I would imagine people just don't realize they are available, or haven't had the chance to see the movement of the MC for themselves. Like me. Until a few hours ago I didn't know they existed, but now I want one. I can only imagine what a difference it would make.

Imagine taking at least an inch of pedal travel out of the brake pedal.

Is that also mean it will have more braking power with the MC brace installed or just better brake feel.

This seems like a must do mod. Too bad.

Any idea why Spoon quit making them? Maybe because of sales?
