braided lines, good idea?

I wouldn't worry about braided lines.

And before you shell out on new rotors - you can always get them machined flat if there is enough meat left in them.

Don't forget to give them a proper bed-in procedure once they go in. I had those pads on my old car and they were fantastic.

I have HPX pads for the front, getting slotted rotors from US, too hard to find here at decent price. Probably be January before it all goes on the car, witing, waiting. Less than a week to get these lines

I found the stock brakes less than inspiring after having some big brakes on my last car

Still got the stock 16" alloys on VR, will be changing up to 18s . I have the rims, powdercoat black and then think about tyres. This is where the real money goes

Good shocks and the right spring rate will help keep wheels on the ground while heavy braking too

Hey Darren, I'm wondering where did you buy that braided brake lines from? I can see the brand but the one from Safe Brake website that is on offer only has 4 lines. And did it fit? I'm interested in getting the same lines.

It's a 6 line set, look for it on ebay 179 free postage. Troll thru CJ lnacer search. It bolted straight on, direct swap, working well

I think I found it. Many thanks. Now to contemplate if I really want to upgrade the brake lines or not. Oh, warranty. LOL =p

braided lines, good idea?
