Default SS brake lines

Hey guys, just got my stainless steel brake lines in. my bro got em for me for my b-day. damn, the brakes are way more solid. just thought id do a little bragging. I also have about 4/5 of my Suspension Techniques polyurethane bushing set done, i just have the rears and the front uppers left. what a difference! highly suggested!

yea ss lines really make the difference in a brake upgrade. my buddy put new 13" cobra brakes on his stang and it felt stock cause he used the rubber lines. i used ss lines and man do they do wonders.

for any brake upgrade go ss lines

baers are nice setups but are a bit pricey. i dont know what other options there are for civics though.

yeah, Baer is a good setup. ive just got the 00 si discs on all fours, ive got D/S Brembo rotors, but only for the rears, so im waiting to put them on until i get the fronts too. but ive got carbon metallic pads and that made a HUGE difference, with a sticky set of dunlops that thing stops like you wouldnt believe. i need to find a big empty place to measure my 60-0 distances on the G-Tech.

its pretty good. i think ill end up getting the one from beltronics though. its more expensive but i think it'd be way more useful. the gtech can be had for around 50 bucks, but the beltronics one is between 150 and 300. with the gtech you have to level it out perfectly before you run and that makes it hard to set up, but the beltronics is self leveling. also, the gtech only gives the first two digits of your horsepower rating, so its hard to guess what it is, like mine says 13 or 14, and the evo says 23 or 24, instead of 135 or 234 or whatever. and the beltronics shows 60 ft times and all that too. its cool though, i just need to find a good spot to use mine, w/o getting busted.
