    SS brake lines

    now i found a link on a topic that discussed this before but the price was lil high
    http://cgi.ebay.com/Mitsubishi-Galan...QQcmdZViewItem


    but then i came up with a theory, since the dual piston calipers and the rear disk swaps comes from 2g gsx or diamante or 3g eclipse and so forth why not buy the stainless steel lines for those cars this way it will be way cheaper

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/98-MI...spagenameZWD1V

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Stain...spagenameZWDVW

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2000-...spagenameZWD1V

    the last one i know will work for sure since its for the 00 gt eclipse but im not sure about the rest

    what do u guys think ??

    thanks

    are the lengths of the hoses the same?? it would suck if the hoses were short.

    RRE has some brake hoses for cheaper than that first link

    Webhosting for less than $3 a month? put "pinoyesv6" as a promo code.

    i dont know the length of any of them but i would assume that the last link would be the same since our cars are identical to the 3g eclipse

    This is true, it's easy enough to find them from there but I'll be nice and spoonfeed you.

    as i remember reading, better braking, less travel of the brake pedal if u r doing the dual piston swap then its worth it to do it all at once

    i bought my technafit lines from boneheadperformance.com and bought them for an evo. granted i have the brembos they were the same as the stock lines. i got mine for $89 and the fact that i have dealt with them in the past i knew i wasnt going to get fucked on anything or get tied up in the ebay drama. hit them up http://www.boneheadperformance.com/

    the best brake upgrade you can do besides doing the evo swap is to get slotted rotors (powerslot, brembo, stoptech), ceramic brake pads, stainless brake lines, and DOT 4 fluid. period.

    this is the last link i posted in the first post and its the same company and its only 4 cents more on ebay than their website, so i would use the eclipse v6 or galant v6 application since i dont have the brembos

    what i really mean is longevity compared to stock lines......i've done some browsing online a bit ago(back when I got the dual piston calipers in december) about lines snapping right were the line meets the fittings...that kind pushed me away even though the benefits are way obvious

    Its funny I just junked those brake lines because that plastic! end they have on them is total shit. Remember: You Get What You Pay For! You really should get something that should be crimped.


    I paid $145 for a set of these and they are top notch dam good lines

    Except I suggested Tearstone because I've dealt with Russ a ton and I trust him to back up his products.

    They are made by a company called VOXA, the only thing is that they have a banjo fitting for the rear ones as they were designed for the evo brembos. You should cross-ref the thread size/pitch between the brembo bolts and the galant rear line thread/pitch
