Re: Goodridge type flexy brake lines opinions ?
Basically mate braided hoses dont swell up like rubber ones when you press the brake hence pedal feeling firmer and having more brake feel.
Also Stainless hose fittings wont rust buth the Zinc ones will start to rust after a few years due to road salt etc,
Hope this is of some help

Re: Brake upgades ???
Every article one reads about improving brakes recommends starting with braided metal brake hoses and good brake fluid. The easiest upgrade are better discs like, for example, ATE slotted power discs and some Mintex C-Tech pads - both available from Eurocarparts. Braided hoses and race brake fluid ...

Re: Brake upgades ???
Why does it being your everyday car mandate that you do an unnecessarily complicated brake conversion? Why bother modifying the hub if there are other better options that don't require modifications? It will become a track car eventually mate and I already have a set of Brembo's and 356 discs ready...
