Better brake feel

i installed the Cusco MC Stopper and it provided a firmer feel when stepped on the brake. Which i guess it is better than a soft uncertain padal.

Different horses for different courses... personal preference really


For $150 Ill either upgrade MC and brake booster OR pads and fluid OR stainless steel lines + somthing else.. but thats just me..

Cause when push comes to shove on the track, a brake stopper does nothing when you fluids are boiling and your pads are fadding; your pedal will still hit the floor with no brake pressure

Very true blitz.

Having stainless steel lines, different pads and descent fluid will give you good braking performance which should travel through to the pedal as well.

Confidence is in performance. :D

:thumbsup:..
I like them.. i used them for both track and streeet.. i dont even bother changing them..

I can ABS around wakie every corner if i like .. they are great for honda..

however they suck for heavier cars.. alot of people seem to have problems with the pads on heavier cars like skylines rexies etc etc


althought they are good.. there is better.. the ferodo stuff is quiet good..

and the wear factor on EBC green stuff is quiet high like every other perofrmance pad

ahh k, does it take a while to become effective?!? like does it only work good when its warm?!?

Ok, so what are the options for upgrading a MC and brake booster?

Type R? Whats above that?

If you have a DC2 you're already at top of the honda range (vtir is same as type R). And this is more than enough for the weight of the car. Even heavier cars such as accords and preludes use the same.

type r mc is actually bigger. it has a 1" bore whereas the vti-r is smaller.

i need to upgrade the mc when i upgrade my front and rear calipers.

Chee's right; the Civic VTi-R has a 15/16" MC compared with the Type R's 1". I have recently changed my Civic VTi-R MC and booster with a CTR unit, to improve the feel of the brake pedal after I installed CTR brakes in my car.

On another note I have had my brakes worked on by three different workshops, two specilized in brakes, and none of them have been able to bleed my brakes correctly. Everytime I have had to take my car to a Honda dealer workshop to get the brakes bled properly.

I think my a type R MC should be suffice for my brake setup. Hopefully everything goes well.
