Looks good! Can't wait for mine to arrive :)

I opted for the strut brace and the stopper separately; apparently the individual brake stopper is stronger.

Hey Trieu, How do the brakes feel now with the stopper? is there a big difference?
Cheers,

It holds the cyclinder in place, when you press on the brake, it reduces firewall flex, hence you get better brake pedal feel.

A BCS is worth it. The cusco is good cos it combined with the strut brace, you can get stand alone BCS as well.

Yeap what XRC15T said.. I have yet to turn a hard corner so still waiting for the opportunity.

As for the BCS, ummm I feel more confident in the car's braking... does that cut it? :) :)
