I have to agree... I really hate the soft pedal feel. I put Stoptech SS lines on and put in Motul 600. Bled the system using TWO bottles of the Motul and the brake pedal is still soft. You can tell that the pdeal goes to a certain point and then gets soft or mushy. It has to be the MC flex.

CATO, if you get this I would really like to drive your car if the feel is improved with it.

This will definitely firm up your pedal. Have friend press your brake pedal and you will see how much your m/c dives. I also have BBK with SS brake lines. Then later added the master cylinder brace, for me this made a big difference!

Bump.

I have the same soft pedal that a lot of people complain about. I have to double pump the brakes to get good feel out of them. I've tried bleeding them many times.


Has anyone with a soft pedal installed this brace and had it completely cure the problem?
