Overview

The Hardrace Brake Master Cylinder Stopper is a precision-engineered upgrade designed specifically for select Subaru models including the Crosstrek, Forester, and WRX/STI from 2013 to 2021.

It is ideal for Subaru enthusiasts seeking improved brake control and a more responsive braking experience without extensive modifications.

Crafted from ultra-strong steel with a durable protective coating, the stopper reflects Hardrace’s commitment to quality and longevity. Its robust construction ensures superior strength to withstand the rigors of spirited driving and daily use alike.

The result is a more controllable and predictable brake feel that complements the dynamic capabilities of Subaru’s AWD platforms.
