Review:Installation was breeze. Install link here:[ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdm24Jqiptg"]How to install Racer X Fabrication Master cylinder Brace BRZ FRS GT86 - YouTube[/ame]
The design is clean. Craftsmanship and finish is pretty much an art. In addition, the brace is very light weight because the brace is billet Aluminum. (for the people who do not know what billet Aluminum is…They start with one solid piece of aluminum and machine around it to make the shape / part)
Cost is priced the well compared to other MCB in the market. However, it has said before you get what you paid for. I believe that this master cylinder brace is the best money can buy.

Does it work?
With daily driving my test buddy could not even tell that I had anything done to it. However, with heavier / hard brakes YES! He was able to tell a positive difference and the pedal did feel more responsive.

Was it worth it?
Yes, at 89 may seem a lot, however if you compared that to two tank fill up here in Maryland 89 bucks is pretty much nothing. It was a clean, simple, and fun modification to do.






:thanks:

Nice review. I noticed mine right when I got on the brakes the first time. Even at low speed, light braking. It's a huge upgrade for such a small price. Well worth it, in my opinion.
