WTB: Cusco brake cylinder stopper

As per description I am after the standalone stopper (not the one attached to the strut tower brace).

Can you please take a measurement for me as for NA engines the intake pipe may get in the way. See attached pic I need the length of the bolt from where it touches the master cylinder to the other end.

Looking at photos of mine, something sticking straight out from the master cylinder wouldn't interfere with the intake pipe. The 2.5i may differ though...

On mine it has a little resonator box hanging off the intake pipe (see pic). It is not exactly in line with the master cylinder though, it's offset towards the centerline of the car by about an inch or so. But as you can see the master cylinder isn't exactly parallel with the ground either, it slopes, so the stopper bolt would be aimed up towards the resonator. From the first pic, it looks like the bolt goes a fair way past the power steering rubber hose.

Interesting... Mine has that same extra chamber but it is sitting underneath the intake pipe. You could take that pipe off and re-flex it such that it fits up with that chamber below the pipe.

Here is probably a better view it shows how the resonator is offset from the center of the brake cylinder. The stopper might *just* hit it. The resonator is mounted pretty sturdy to the intake pipe i.e. I can't just twist it to a different angle. Also I'm not sure if I can twist the intake hose this way or another given that the filter box and plenum box are at fixed angles to the hose.

ahh, ok, the 3RB pipe has a second flex in it at the airbox end. Carry on folks, nothing to see here :oops:


Could the stopper bolt be shortened?

All good Tony thanks for the suggestions anyway ;) Yes I may need to look at shortening the stopper if I cannot flex the resonator out of the way.
