Default Master Brake cylinder braces
Hi all,

2007 STi Spec D, any tried and tested ones that are good from your own experience? Cusco....Perrin?
Seem nice and easy to fit, but are they seriously worth it?

Tegiwa do them as well. They're definitely worth it, especially combined with braided hoses.

Matty in the traders section had one in not long ago.
I have a tegiwa one and have to say with braided brake lines they make a hell of a difference.

Yes that's it...….Tegiwa was the brand I couldn't think of, do they do a stealthy black version?

Front and rear on mine. The tegiwa ones only come in blue. I wanted a red one so had one off matty and sprayed it.

I've thought about one of these as the standard brembos are pretty pants. Not sure they will make too much difference to a standard set up? Aren't they a bit of a pig to fit?

They'll make a difference, even without braided hoses.
Even for a numpty like me it only took 15 minutes to fit.
One of the best value for money mods I did to my wagon.
