Ireland Stainless Steel Brake lines make a huge differance in pedal feel!
Makes the pedal stiff, but still doesn't add that 'touchy' feeling that you get from new cars (aka 5-lug). Upgrade in the MC would do the trick.
Whenever someone talks about SS lines, I can't help but think of the guy that wrapped zipties around his rubber lines instead of throwing down the cash for SS ones.

finally installed mine in tonight and they def. feel a lot better... the response of the brake is a lot sooner, gives me alot more confidence on the road
How hard are they to swap? I assume all the brake lines need to be bled off first and you would need new fluid after wards? Is there a DIY artcile on this that anyone knows of?
Bleeding yes, more fluid yes. Write up would be Lift car, properly support it, remove and replace lines one at a time replace fluid, bleed starting at right (passenger rear) and replace fluid, bleed left rear replace fluid, then front right, replace fluid, front left replace fluid.

So you replace the fluid everytime you change each line? Why not replace all 4 at one time, then refillthe whole system with new fluid and bleed the lines once that way?
