Mesh Brake Lines?
So is this an option or not? I am hearing different things.
I am assuming these mesh brake lines are SS lines?
This would be one of my first mod's along with some better fluid like ATE super blue or similiar.
Also heard noise about beign a real PIA to bleed this system with the funky performance ABS?
Thoughts?

SS braided lines will provide a better pedal feel, less spongy when you are pushing the brakes to their limits and they get hot, less resistence to fade or "boiling" the fluid with a high quality temp fluid.
The majority of brake lines in the car are steel, and solid ie...hard. The junction from the wheels to these hard steel lines is the weak link (rubber)as they need to be flexible for wheel/suspension travel.
SS lines are essentially a flexible hard line that eliminates the softer rubber that has a tendancy to expand under heat and pressure.
I do this mod on almost all my cars...big difference in pedal feel if you push it hard, street or track.
