Default Ss braided Brake lines

Hey Guys,

anyone had expereience with braided brake lines? are they worth the investment/time in getting them? IF so, any suggestions on brands? I want to do them when I change the brake fluid (should I go synthetic brake fluid?)

cheers,

YV

I have Goodridge SS lines and there is much less fade than with the stock ones. They're not expensive or hard to install so go for it.

I'm not sure what you meant to say, but fade is the wrong terminology. Fade has to do with the pads mostly, and the rotors, not the brake lines.

You're probably just feeling less expension, which is definately a good thing.

I meant to say the brakes felt squishy after braking hard and they didn't want to stop anymore. It probably had something to do with the pads too (I was running AEM/NISSIN pads). The SS lines and changing fluid got rid of the squishy petal brakes suck feeling.
