Default Stainless Steel Lines ...BRand ??

I believe goodridge, russell, Neuspeed, and Techna Fit all make Stainless Steel Brake Lines for the 5th gen type SH preludes. Which would you guys go with ? And also what type of brake fluid....i was thinking ATE Super Blue (DOT 4)...what do u guys recomend ?

when i did my five lug swap i added russell lines, ate super blue fluid along with brembo blanks and some nice pads (i forget the name). i really enjoy the way the car brakes now. i have heard that the fluid will make a bigger differance than just the SS lines (reg fluid), althoug you asked about the combo and i am telling you i like mine.

out of the ones you listed, i believe the neuspeed ones were the only ones that were "covered" and/or sealed. so instead of bare SS, it has a layer to protect against dirt getting under the SS and wearing down the brake line

which is why you should change your SS brake lines every 1-2 years, that may not be the case with some ppl but it is a precautionary thing

i hated my russell lines. talk about ill fitment. eventually went back to stock, and to be honest, haven't noticed the difference b/w stock and SS lines.

as far as fluid, i'm using motul RBF600, but ATE superblue is a good fluid.
