GROUP BUY ENDS 31 MARCH 2009

UAS brake booster stoppers reduces firewall flex when braking for more responsive braking.

The pedal has a more positive feel (a less spongy feeling).

A must for track days and worth considering for enthusiastic streeters.

DIY installation.

What you get:

5mm laser cut alloy

TIG welded

Anodised black

Stainless allen key adjusting bolt

Stainless mounting bolts to secure direct to recessed nuts on inside of strut tower.

Full kit much is lighter than Cusco and as strong, looks better and won’t rust.

Price: $70 each plus delivery.

Delivery: $12.50 freight and handling.

The RRP from UAS is $95

(This price compares very favourably to the Cusco brake cylinder stopper $175 delivered Nengun).

Installation takes about 10minutes tooles required:

10mm spanner or socket + 5.5mm hex key (or strong fingers and pliers)

Step 1. Remove the plastic covers on the drivers side to reveal the recessed nuts in inner skirt.

Step 2. Align alloy brake stopper and install mounting bolts.

step 3. Tighten allen key adjusting bolt against the brake cylinder.

Step 4. Check and re-tighten bolts after 1-2 weeks.

I have wanted one of these for a long time for my GTR. If John has finally got some more made then you had better put me down for one.

what are the chances there is damage to the cylinder wall if you stomp your brakes real hard and the cylinder instead of flexing pushes against the stopper??? Wouldn't it be a good idea to have some sort of thick rubber cap there instead of metal-on-metal ??

i have never heard of damage due to this issue.

the reason for using a metal brace is to reduce the effect of firewall flex so the brakes function as intended.

do you want me to add you to the GB list?

I understand the purpose of it and I'm "probably" in for the next GB due to finances right now .. but I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that the Cusco one has a rubber cap so that the brake cylinder isn't hitting metal on metal as that can damage the cylinder and that all these other copies are just completely made out of metal.

edit: I suppose it would be rather ease to just glue on a piece of rubber on the part that touches the brake cylinder so I guess it's a non-issue. Will you run this GB again later this month? Cheers

yeah i'm sure this GB can go again if there is interest (and UAS are keen to let me do it again).

i intend on fulfilling the first 5 orders asap. so hopefully pick-ups as soon as tomorrow and delivery once the money has cleared.

regardless, the GB will still be open for the whole month and i will organise the delivery/pickup for anyone else until 31 march 2009 (or UAS run out, whatever comes first. i am assured there are plenty in stock).

Pick up should be available from this afternoon delivery for the others when the money clears.

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
