braided brake lines
Has anyone tried this? I had someone tell me that switching to braided brake lines made his brakes feel like he pulled off a whole caliper/rotor replacement. Has anyone switched to them?

blauparts was selling the kit, not sure if they still do as some are not DOT approved.
I had them on my old BMW, solid pedal feel and much less of a worry of having a rupture.

also running them on street and rally car... no problems... love them.
even the stock brakes on the rally car, with the ABS system bypassed but the stock prop valve... feel awesome. Stainless lines, ATE superblue... I had these old pads and rotors smoking during some spirited driving on the weekend... rotors were glowing red after one 10k section. Quick sprint on the highway and cooled right down.
Definitely a fan of the ss lines.
*edit*
Just to clarify... mine aren't from Blau. Set on the rally car are from a vw Fox (exact same dimensions on ss lines), and the set on the street car are from an Ebay seller in ontario.
