stainless brake lines?

BLU BY U · 08-17-2006, 05:56 PM

Anyone with an 06si upgrade to stainless steel brake lines? i saw them available in the latest honda tuning mag.

**twistedframe** · 08-17-2006, 07:47 PM

i've got the set from goodridge. I did that upgrade along with some high temp brake fluid and the brakes really feel more responsive and stiff. Great upgrade in my opinion

BLU BY U · 08-17-2006, 08:29 PM

thanks for the input, definitley worth the money?

i would like to know also... can u send a link to both of them please, thanks.

Are these being sold anywhere yet? I know twisted had a connection on his, IIRC.

**twistedframe** · 08-17-2006, 10:33 PM

i did have a connection when i got mine a while ago but now they are readily available here....

and BLu deff. worth the money iIMO. Just take the time to at least bleed the brakes the right way if not upgrade to a high temp fluid. We all have felt the lacking brake but I found that by bleeding them well it improved the feel alot. Good luck guys. they are fairly straight forward to install but if you need any help please feel free to ask!

Dzamn! Thats a nice price too! $107. I figured they would be a lot more than that...Hello stainless brake lines!

If this feels anything like it did on my bike when I upgraded to steel lines, this is a very very good upgrade. I put a set of goodridge lines on my bike and huge improvement in feel.. there is no sponginess whatsoever.

**sickyute** · 08-18-2006, 03:05 AM

ordering :)
need all the help with stopping my beast now :)
thanks.

Please remember to bleed the brakes. People always forget that step in a hurry to finish the job. My mechanic didn't bleed my brakes like he should've and eventually the calipers seized. The ones I needed the most....

Now I just do the ish myself and I'm all good :)

And I second twisted about the stainless lines. I have Goodridge lines on my G2. With an upgrade in the pads and fluid I didn't need a BBK; they worked perfectly.

hate asking to get specifics but i want it down, what was the exact high temperature fluid u used or would recommend?

MaKo · 08-18-2006, 07:50 AM

Good deal! Thanks for the source twisted.

I will be changing my fluid out and moving to ATE Super Blue. Anybody know what size to order for speed bleeders?

6 week backorder (minimum) on these puppies from Nopi.

Placed my order this morning and just received a call with the news of the delay. Oh well, went ahead and let them place it. Haven't seen availability anywhere else. Nice of them to call and let me know though.

**sickyute** · 08-18-2006, 06:32 PM

yeah i checked to.
told me the same crap.
i'll keep looking though...i always seem to find things.
nice center console mako.

MaKo · 08-18-2006, 06:40 PM

Thanks...it comes in handy for keeping toys outta site.

Let me know if you find em anywhere else. These guys said I could cancel the order anytime up till they come in.

**sickyute** · 08-18-2006, 07:17 PM

yeah i'll let u know.
i'm looking for 1 myself...keep the electronics out of site...ie...boost controller(till i get the aem boost controller + boost gauge combo) and the edfc.
currently have an autometer boost gauge and greddy type s boost controller...trying to eliminate the need for both with 1 aem unit to match the aem air fuel ratio gauge :)...keep it real simple.

then all i'd have to hide is the edfc.

**sickyute** · 08-18-2006, 07:19 PM

edelbrock had brake lines and clutch lines out for the 2006 Si also...
i think i may just get those seeing as the goodrige are on back order everywhere i've checked.

MaKo · 08-19-2006, 04:04 AM

Yeah, I was looking at that. Any place online to buy Edelbrock products or do I have to go through a local vendor of their wares?
