Earl's SS Lines
Im looking for a set of yummy SS lines for my 00 Si. Where has everyone ordered them from? I found them on jdmhondaparts.com for 125, just wondering of other places. Thanks.

I've heard the fit is questionable with Earls and Russell lines. Goodridge lines seem to be the best. No problems with mine. Go to http://www.NipponPower.com

Re: Earl's SS Lines (johng)
Yea ive seen the lines on nipponpower and have heard no complains on the goodridge lines,, they seem to be the standard but Earls is a more speciality name. I guess it may be too much hassle and expensive when tons of places carry the goodridge lines. Thanks.

I have Earls lines on my Integra. You have to use a drill to open up the slot on the caliper a little bit, but it was no big deal.
Got 'em from OPM Motorsports. http://www.opmmotorsports.com.
I think it was $120 for the set.

My local shop was saying something about that today. I guess for the price and availibility, I will most likley end up going with Goodridge after all. Anyone have anything BAD to say about their goodridge lines??

Re: Earl's SS Lines (siisgood00)
I got the Goodridge lines on my 'teg and they fit mostly fine. Install was no problem, although I recommend re-using the stock Honda banjo bolts. The ones that come with the lines are flimsier and may snap when torqued to the Honda recommended value.
I did notice on my car that the front lines tend to get stuck a bit. Let me try to explain where.
From where you mount the line to the hard line that comes from the master cylinder, in the wheel well, you go to a first bend, through an eyelet that mounts on the shock. The stock line used two mounting points, the goodridge only one. Right there, is where I get some binding after turning the wheel all the way over. It snags the line through the eyelet, and then that puts tension on it between the eyelet and the mounting point at the hard line after the wheel has straightened out. Does anyone have the same problem?
That's my only concern with the lines themselves.
wishing I had a picture, right about now...

The owner of Technafit used to be the President of Goodridge USA, and he left to start up a new company. Website is techna-fit.com. Excellent quality and prices.
