04 cobra brakes on 94

The rear Cobra brakes are about as large as the stock GT front brakes.

I actually had problems with the rear stock GT brakes, so I decided to swap everything out for the 04 Cobra setup front and rear. This setup should give me another 10+ years of reliability with little more than pad replacement.

Anyone replace their rear brake lines? I haven't yet, but noticed that MM has a SS brake line kit for our cars (5 lines total: 2 front, 3 rear).

I replaced my rear lines on my Cobra conversion. Can't say how the braking power has changed, haven't finished the project yet. The MM kit has brackets for the rear hoses, these replace the brackets spot-welded on to the factory hoses, which is a good thing. The kit is missing the factory bracket for the center line, but their instructions explain how to re-use the factory bracket. The brackets help keep the hard lines from flexing as the car moves around.

I didn't know about these kits and ended up doing a bit of fabrication and was able to re-use the factory brackets. I'll save some time on my GT and buy the MM kit next time.
