Stainless Steel Braided Brake Line Kits - Where are they?
Can't seem to find them anywhere on the net and according to the guys at TireRack - Goodridge isn't making a kit for the Honda Fit.
I do know about the JDM offerings but damn those are expensive and do they fit no problem?
What are my options guys? Do brake line kits from other Honda models work?

i tried ordering the ss lines from tirerack two months ago and i got the same answer you have from Jim@tirerack that goodridge will not make them.
i would think JDM will work for the front, but not the rears because USDM have drum rears and JDM has disc rears.

I thought Tirerack sold sets from goodridge. I was contemplating on SS lines. But after changing the fluid, I feel that this has been adequate in improving pedal feel. I recommend everybody spend $8 and change to valvoline syn. It makes a very big difference in repetitive braking.

BUMP!
Looking for people who have installed the T1R SS Braklines
I have a set of these sitting around at home, one of these days I plan to install them.![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)
If you installed them yourself is there anything that was tricky or unexpected? How long did you spend to fully bleed out the lines? Any pics of the install?
How about a performance review?
Cheers!

"gettinafit" installed my SS brake lines as part of the minor brake upgrade I did to my car which included Power Slot Cryo treated front rotors from Tire Rack, Extr3me Motorsports street pads/shoes from the Vendor Forums, and ATE blue racing fluid from the local carparts shop.
Oh yes, it's much better than stock thats for sure and I currently don't feel the need for a big brake kit or rear discs with the driving I do.

BUMP! Any updates or further info on this? I was about post a new thread on basically same topic.
Mostly wondering about wave's set-up-- looks pretty cool for a basic upgrade.
