I want to get some upgraded brake lines but don't know where to get them. I have seen prices from 175 to 250 and can't seem to find any differences in them. Any help in this would be great. Also beyond these lines, better fluid, slotted and drilled rotors, and ceramic brake pads all the way around what else can be done to improve braking performance.:shrug:
 
I installed a set of Russell SS lines on a 2000 GT 'vert several years ago. Made the brakes much more firm. Nice pieces, fit like a glove. I also put on PowerSlot rotors and EBC "GreenStuff" pads at the same time. As for fluid, I always use Castrol-seems to work well. On my new '06, I will probably go with Akebono Pro Act or Hawk Performance Ceramic pads when time comes for new ones.
 
I have Steeda SS lines, Hawk HPS pads and ATE super blue fluid. I'm still running stock tires and rotors but haven't felt like I was running out of brakes at the track (road not drag). The only issue I have with the Steeda lines is they are very close in length and seem to put some stress on the fittings when the car is jacked up. I have no experience with others to know if they give more lenght.
