Yeah it's a Cusco knock off, as long as it's not made of cheese it should do what it says on the tin.

Do these actually work, or just one of them pieces of kit that add 'scene' points?

In theory, yes.

However, like many bolt-on bits, their usefulness on the road is immeasurable.

I've not checked on the MR2 but on the Supra it definitely helped firm up the pedal feel.

Get someone to press the brake pedal and see if there's any movement of the BMC.

I've got a genuine one on mine

Thoroughly recommend it, you do actually feel a difference in pedal feel. Well worth it for that money :thumleft:

I have a tegiwa master cylinder brace and it does make a noticeable difference under hard braking. really simple to fit, 10 mins max. And it does look great too. build quality was perfect.
