Brake lines are a great point to start your handling or foot work tuning as they call it here in Japan. As they say if you want to go fast you better brake faster! Braided Stainless Brake Lines are great upgrade points for your car for a few reasons.
1. General safety I would say is the biggest one. With your car being a few years old now and constantly exposed to the weather the OEM brake lines are bound to become brittle and leak. This is one thing you definitely do not want to happen when you are running hard in the mountains, on a circuit or anywhere for that matter.
2. Better brake feel and brake response will be achieved with brake line upgrades. The OEM brake lines flex a lot under hard braking. This flex will make your brakes feel soggy and unresponsive. Steel braided brake lines will flex much less and you will be able to direct close to 100 percent of the pedal pressure directly to the brake caliper.
3. Stainless Steel brake lines look better and will last longer than your OEM ones and since you are going to do the change you might as well go with the best. You are going to have to change your brake lines sooner or later so you might as well go with some that are longer lasting and better looking than the OEM ones.
"Which brake likes should I buy?" Is a question we often hear. Braided Steel Brake Lines come in many variations. These variations can be found on our website and include Braided Steel Brake Lines, Braided Stainless Steel Brake Lines and Braided Stainless Steel Teflon Brake Lines. The Teflon Brake Lines have the inside of the hose line coated with Teflon. This Teflon inner lining is highly resistant to the chemical corrosion of the brake fluid running inside the lines. All of the braided brake lines have a polymeric outer layer that prevents dirt from getting between the stainless braids.
We always recommend APP Brake lines as all their products are made and tested in Japan and are the best. They will make brake lines for any car you have if you need them even if they are not listed in the catalog. Please feel free to inquire with us if you need some APP lines and you cannot find any for your car.
