FS: Stillen Brake master cylinder brace
I don't remember why I bought this, but I just found it nicely tucked away in it's original box. I paid $140 for it, but will gladly let it go for $100 shipped or $90 for locals.
Notes from the stillen website:
309360 / 309360 - Application Notes
**This will not fit 06 G35 Sedans. On 05-06 Coupes, the master cylinder must be 6", this will not fit 3.5" master cylinders.**
installation instructions:

It's holds the master cylinder in place under heavy breaking. Here's exactly what it says on the website:
"Open the hood of your Nissan / Infiniti and have someone step on the brakes. You'll see the master cylinder dive towards the frame. This hurts your braking performance & softens up the brake pedal.
Our Master Cylinder Brace supports the cylinder and translates that wasted motion into braking force. You'll notice the improvement immediately. This brace consists of a billet aluminum piece with a delrin support cup and CAD plated mounting bracket and hardware."
I think it also helps out a bit if you have a mushy pedal even after bleeding. I never installed it though, since I only drive 6 miles a day, and have only auto-x'd once.
