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 couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
    • It's been quite the ordeal but hey, at least you figured it out.
    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow
