they brace the BMC against the strut tower directly in front of it. as a result, the firewall doesnt flex when you stomp on the brakes (which it does quite a bit as standard). less flex = a less spongy pedal, and better brake feel because the energy in your foot goes through the brake system rather than be used in bending firewall

just get someone to push the brakes hard while you watch the master cylinder move...it's pretty bad!

then consider that the pistons in the brakes themselves move about 3-5mm for all of the distance the pedal travels. If the master cylinder is moving 3-5mm as well that means there is as much flex as there is actual braking in your pedal movement!

Brake master cylinder stopper + braided lines + 20y.o. ABS unit + 20y.o. master cylinder = Leaky ABS & leaky master cylinder.

I know most gtst don't have abs but if it does then expect it to be the weakest link if you fit one of these & hammer your brakes.

I'm not saying they are a bad thing, I thought it was great, I will put it back on once I rebuild the ABS with new seals, gave them heaps more feel through the pedal, more so than the braided lines.

Just saying that if your 32 is original & master cylinder is pretty shabby then keep in mind that down the line if it starts leaking you will know why.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
