better brake feel

none

I installed a set of these last saturday along with the grimspeed master cylinder brace and flushed the brake fluid. The pedal feels completely different now and the brakes react instantly. I doubt the stopping distance has decreased much but it is just a much better feel. Overall I think the brake lines are about half responsible for the improvement and would recommend to anyone, especially if your car has some miles on it and the rubber coating is starting to crack on the factory hoses.

installed these on my 05' LGT, and helped a huge amount, everything bolts right up, went together smoothly. Only recommendation i have is,to make sure you have a 10mm flare wrench before you start this.

Pros:
|
Positive brake pedal feeling
|
|
Cons:
|
Cheap brass clips included; Lines are just long enough
|
|
Firms up pedal feel. No real difference in actual braking performance. Brass holding clips are included but break easily. Lines don't have a lot of play to make the connections. Make sure you have box end/flare nut wrenches or you WILL damage the OEM hardlines!

Pros:
|
no more squishy pedals, easy install. good price
|
|
Cons:
|
cheap clips and bolts. need to reuse/machine oem hardware.
|

I did a weekend instal with goodridge lines, fluid and new front pads. Pedal feel is great and much more responsive, paired with a good pair of brakes and a bleed, confidence in your ride is restored.
The hardware is very weak brass, the banjo bolt torque specs are a max of 24lbs, which is not close to a proper seal IMO. Needless to say, we machine cleaned the OEM bolts and locking clips and I'm using those and drive with confidence in them. That's why these get a 7 of 10 imo.
Otherwise the install is easy, take out the back hard-lines and stock rubber lines in one piece, that will give you more room to work. Took about 2 hours with some beers, cigs, and a friend's child walking around wanting to help/arrange tools for about 30 mins

Easy to install, zero weight penalty and improved brake pedal feel. No more soft pedal on routine stops and immediate response on emergency braking stops.

Firmer feel

Can be a hassle to install

I had these installed after having my hawk pads for over a year. The difference in brake feel was hardly noticeable, but there was one. The brake power was boosted slightly, so a panic stop takes less effort. The brakes also communicate more feedback before ABS kicks in. With that said, this is a no downside mod. The installer was awesome and installed them quickly (had a flare wrench which came in handy). It would've been a pain for a novice like myself however.
