It's perfect time for a set of SS brake lines if you do any kind of speed contest (at the track that is).

p.s. just be sure to get some that have the silicone or latex or whatever coating on the outside or else dirt and other junk can get into the braids and wear them out, i personaly had an uncoated ss line burst on me before becaus of that

Russell (edelbrock) are also good and they come pvc coated. Earls and Goodridge lines do not. All three are DOT approved. Make sure you know what year your brakes are from. The rear caliper outlet angle is different between some of the years and the Earls or Goodridge lines may kink if installed on the wrong year REAR calipers. The Russell lines happen to fit both varieties so these are the ones I would recommend. I use the Russells on my ITR and have had no problems after many track days. Hope this helps- Oh and do not buy the cheapo ebay ones. They seem to be prone to leaking and being plugged form the factory. Stick with the three companies I listed and you should be trouble free.
