    SS brake lines

    I was shopping online for stainless braided brake lines when I came across this: http://www.nsxprime.com/wiki/Brake_Lines

    Makes it sound like a risky, expensive and high maintenance "upgrade" for a daily driver. What do y'all think?

    I'm at 4 years and 80K miles on my KVR's from Dennis. One of my first mods.

    OMG, AM I GONNA DIE?!



    Everywhere there's something good, there's always a nay-sayer. Don't get me wrong - sometimes I'm that guy! Not in this case.

    We'd most definitely have heard a story by now if either of our manufacturer's (KVR and TCE) had issue.

    You'll get a firmer pedal with the SS lines. Todd at TCE has a few sets available.

    OK, you've convinced me. Called Todd at TCE today and ordered a set. Just remember, my blood is on your hands!

    Got the SS hoses and had them put on last week, BIG difference! No longer feels like there's a rubber ball under the brake pedal. Drove from Vegas to Riverside and back and braking feels much more secure. Wish I'd done this 4 years ago!
