brake stopper are no substitute for a brake upgrade, they are only there to reduce firewall flex during very harsh brakings. it only makes the brake more responsive and that's all it does. brake line pressure & clamping pressure still remains the same hence braking performance does not change at all!
thats correct!
further flex in the system can be removed when this is combined with braided brake lines ALL ROUND.
it's true about the confident bit... it will also help you notice a tad earlier if your pads have faded from high heat.

if it changes response isn't that change performance attributes in some way?
Doesn't increase stopping power but changes how that stopping power is used/available.
it's equivalent to say.. the difference to a hydr and cable clutch... hydro is predictable whereas cable MAY have flex... but difference in response is noticable...
duno how else to put it.... Nylon fishing line compared to braided?

any one know what the diff between the EK ones with ABS and for NON-ABS cars is ? im using a ITR Brake booster/MC, dont know which one to buy... my car has no abs but the brake booster was from a dc2r, which had abs.

Mate thats tricky,
I was reading a thread on the EK scenario the other night with a fellow buying the ABS variant for the non ABS.. or vice versa.....
the bit where the pusher bolt goes in was too close to the booster so the variation would be a clearance issue.... but since you have dc2r booster then thats another boat.
best to visit a shop that sells them and 'borrow' them to line them up.
I took a risk in buying a JDM rhd DC2R stopper for my del sol and it fits, otherwise would have just sold it here hehehe
