Stainless braided brake lines... Worth it?

Do they firm-up the pedal by any significant amount?

Who's making them these days? Only A&J?

Are the rears worth installing? Line pressure on a drum setup ought to be pretty low....

They are not worth it unless you are planning to go to the track quite a bit.Or you are up grading your whole braking sysem with bigger rotor's and pad's. (save your money)

Once you get 100,000 miles or your car is a little older they are a good upgrade. Much better knowing the rubber isn't going to break, plus they make the brakes feel more solid (personal experience).

I have a set of these from T1R, putting them in fairly soon.

They didn't cost that much, less than a voltage stabilizer

I plan to spend some time down at the track, I will be using them in conjunction with X3E brake pads. I will post up what I think of the performance they offer.

a Steel Braided brake line is a good deal when u're often do some heavy braking, and a high temperature brake pad is worth every penny when u go on a track day.

so upgrade ur brake setup to suit ur needs
