I was planning to do a lot more with it today, but between some problems with a couple recent orders I was waiting on and a bit of rain here I wasn't able to install anything else.
Nice! Do you have a link?

For the shift knob?

www.subispeed.com/sti-automatic-shift-knob

I tend to order through the subispeed storefront, rather than ft86speedfactory, but same thing either way.

Is this meant to be an alternative to the Grimmspeed MCB?

That's too bad. The STI knob for the MT still has a gray metallic part/sides, which match.

You can say that... but it’s more like it work together. MCB Work it’s full potential when you need to do hard braking (it’ll stop firewall from flexing forward). PSB Work it’s full potential when you want different levels of braking (it’ll stop stressing the firewall). PSB reduce the dull point of brake pedal feel, result you can control more braking pressure level.

Also this bracket is connecting to the brake & clutch pedal, people who have stiffer or aftermarket clutch will notice the difference of clutch pedal as well.

Hope that answer your question

I want red calipers as much as anyone else, but this just seems like it would be bad for the calipers.
