Under normal driving conditions, the drivetrain is constantly moving back and forth. This movement is absorbed by the OEM pitch stop brackets and have not caused any problems until 2015+ year models were released. This normal movement of the drivetrain and weaker OEM brackets lead to failures. These failures come in the form of OEM brackets tearing, welds breaking off of the firewall, and sometimes a combination of the two. The PERRIN Pitch Stop Brace does exactly what its name implies, it reinforces the brackets that connect the pitch stop to the car. Even under normal driving conditions, the brackets flex. The PERRIN Pitch Stop Brace acts as a means of helping to prevent damage and possible failure to your pitch stop brackets. Included in the PERRIN Pitch Stop Brace kit is a replacement stainless steel braided Teflon clutch line. Not only does this clean up your engine bay, but our unrestricted stainless steel braided clutch line provides a faster response, and more firm and consistent pedal feel. An added benefit of the PERRIN Pitch Stop Brace is that it not only comes with an upgraded clutch line, but also braces the clutch master cylinder, reducing firewall flex when depressing the clutch pedal. This is most noticeable on cars with stiffer aftermarket clutches.
Installing the pitch stop brace wasn't complicated at all. The scariest part had to be bleeding the clutch line. The brace felt like great quality, and it gives you ease of mind ensuring the mount doesn't rip the firewall off. I would recommend getting both the mount and the brace together. They are price, but very well worth it.
Hello,

Unfortunately, I forgot to get a video after the installation, but I managed to get a picture. I installed both the brace and mount at the same time and it took me around 2 hours alone. The scariest part honestly was bleeding the clutch line for the first time. Having the Perrin brace gives me ease of mind knowing it is less likely for the mount to rip the firewall. Feels like great quality.

After seeing an example of a pitch stop breaking the firewall and talking to my shop about the nightmare repair job... I got this. The stainless clutch line made the pedal more firm. My ailing 2016 clutch was already hard to press. I followed this mod with the later 240mm OE clutch and lightweight flywheel. (I spec'd all of the parts for a 2020)
Clutch feels awesome now, and I'm not scared the firewall will fail.
Hugh,
Thank you for sharing your experience with the Perrin Pitch Stop Brace and the other modifications you made to your WRX. It is great to hear that you took preventive measures to ensure the reliability and durability of your vehicle. Upgrading the pitch stop brace can indeed provide a more solid feel and peace of mind, especially considering the potential issues with firewall damage. Additionally, combining it with a stainless clutch line and the 240mm OE clutch and lightweight flywheel sounds like a well-thought-out setup for improved clutch feel and performance. We appreciate your 5 Star Review! Enjoy your enhanced driving experience with your WRX!

technically not very difficult but legalistically challenging to install

Rivnuts were a bit of a pain, but the new clutch line feels great
Alex,
Thank you for your 5 Star Review of the Perrin Pitch Stop Brace! The OEM welds on the pitch stop bracket are known to crack and break! This brace supports that bracket to ensure stability and safety! It is a fantastic addition to the WRX/STI!
