[gggti]

I have seen brake pump bracket,it seems to be a very simple
bracket but cost more than hunderd bugs.
So i would like to ask any of u can teach me to custom made one ah.

do u mean Brake Stopper?

a metal thing dat mounted onto the body(strut) then pushing at de brake pump there for better brake feel??

i'm thinking how to do it too... i saw my customers' car.. Euro R... he uses aircraft alloy to make it... damn nice... n solid.... wira a bit hard... need to get some metal bars n welding machine to do it...

I don't really get it what is that. :( Me noob.

ok like this... let me intro a bit...

our brake pump master cylinder unit is mounted on de firewal.. the firewall itself is made of a thin metal sheet... so its not dat solid.... metal sheet can be flexed...

during braking... we press the brake pedal... the brake pump will eventually move forward due to de flexibility of de firewall...

so ppl make this "Brake Stopper" thing to hold back this brake pump thing.. its a metal bracket mounted onto the car body and pushing/holding the brake pump part(metal thing below de resevour) in place. then we wil feel better braking with a firmer feel.

this thing is not so popular in malaysia yet.. i think other countries like japan have them...

It's is very easy to label other people's workmanship as "not good enough" when you yourself didn't even have the idea how effective my frugal and "primitive" Brake Master Cylinder Stopper works. Please, do investigate first before making any comments. I myself have NEVER mention that any of your idea and workmanship is no good.

For a start you should contact these people who have put their trust in my "not good enough" Brake Stopper:

1. Bucho_JR
2. 4AGZE
3. Hitz
4. Chinozie (The Brake Stopper Saved his car and his life)
5. TRD16V
6. Silvertop
7. Banzai
8. Meg_Omen
9. Autoblackie
10. fandago
11. Olskool
12. FX20V
...and a few more I can's recall now.

So please, go ahead and PM them and ask.....I beg u.

emmm its not cool to degrade people stuff like that..even in real world,you wont do it to other people right??
sooo..i guess you know what to do eh? :)

 

[bettergrip]

this car community is actually very small lah. you say something... got proper way to say also.

don't simply degrade people's products... people make a hard earned honest living on good name. one post like that... can damage the efforts. in america... kena court case already.

Well, as for me...i'd say that the amount paid was certainly worth it eventhough the per say item isn't from what one might call aircraft alloy or NASA items which a evidently isn't easily obtainable for the most of us. Having said so, I've recently put it to 100% test with my AE101 following some drifters up and down a relatively chalenging hill. Mind you, I was the ONLY 1.6 there and i could atleast keep up! Also, my car IS STOCK 20v to the BONE! Including the air filter!! Also, I'M NOT A GOOD DRIVER.. The only thing I have is EFN's AFR and his brake stopper! (his old rims and tires as well ;) ) Why? Simply because I brake late and it held up the whole night WITHOUT ANY BRAKE FADE!

If I were you...I wouldn't look down or discriminate ppls items and ideas as I would have non! A smart person won't just do what ppl do...he'd come up with something NO ONE has though of and affrodable....LIKE EFN!! If he's a nice person...he'd share it with ppl and not keep his discovery to himself!! LIKE EFN!! PEACE DUDE!!
