there were a few reviews on these in the past, most of them said they actually decreased pedal feel, while decreaseing pedal travel also.


with the decrease travel - there is less room for the brakes pedal to be finely-adjusted by the foot.. get what i mean?


i think one of the people who bought it actually returned it because it made the car's brake harder to operate. but eh what do i know....

 

The Brace actually Stabalizes the Master Cylinder So it doesn't move as you pump the brake. Increasing Pedal Pressure.

If any1 has Bleeded brakes Knows how much a Master Cylinder Does Move!
This Eliminates that creating it to be Very Stable.

increaseing pedal pressure? leading to locking brake faster?

After HybridGSR1 posted a picture of this brace on H-T last week I decided to give it a test. I received the brace promptly in the mail from evasivemotorsports just three days ago.

Here are my experiences and thoughts regarding this product.

This unit is very high quality – solid and well engineered design that fits perfect. You need to remove the strut tower bar for accessing this area. The simple instructions are easy to follow. It’s not too difficult to install, however it takes some dexterity to install the bolt adjacent to the brake fluid reservoir due to the space constraints. If you have the right tools you can do the install in about 15 minutes.

Driving Impressions:
You can defiantly feel a difference right away with even light to moderate breaking. What this means is that brake pedal travel is shorter and you’ll notice a stiffer feel. This brace does not allow the master cylinder / firewall to flex, period.

Here’s the interesting part of the story. People who promote master cylinder braces say that the stiffer brake feel results in, “greatly improving brake feel and sensitivity”. My experience was just the opposite. The stiff pedal feel and (slightly) shorter pedal travel actually left me with less break feedback and what seemed like less control. The shorter pedal travel lead to vague brake feel and actually diminished my ability to modulate the brake pedal for less controlled stopping. Am I the only one who has this perception?

The manufacturer claims that it will “reduced brake fade” too. I never thought it would do that and still can’t imagine that a brace could accomplish this task. I drove around for a couple days with this brace and came to the conclusion that I definitely prefer the feel without a master cylinder brace.

I did not purchase this unit thinking it would actually improve breaking, but rather had the inclination that it may heighten my driving enjoyment and maybe improve brake control. This was not the case for me.

Brake setup: Spoon Calipers / Axxis Ultimate Pads / Motul 600 Brake Fluid / Stock Brake Lines

That being said, my slightly used Drive master cylinder brace is for sale. I paid $90 plus shipping. First person interested gets it for $65 shipped (paypal). It’s defiantly the best built and best designed MC brace I’ve seen. If you want to try one this is a great opportunity to test it out for yourself. Keep in mind that nearly everyone else who has posted on H-T that has experience with these braces (including other brands and DIY versions) has liked the brake feel improvement. Looks like I’m in the minority.

^ you ho

 

it doesnt increase pressure

it helps lower master cylinder move when the firewall flexes during braking...

the pedal feel is better as the firewall flexes less.

its great for civic lacking pedal feel, but it doesn't solve bad bleeding problems people often have.
