stas,<P>I did the clutch the brake lines as well but I bought the goodrige kit for the brake lines from corksport. I also upgraded to dot4 fluid, the earls parts fit perfectly for me. I just thought it was easier to do the whole lot at once. for the brakes I replaced all calipers and pads and used speedbleeders on them for easy bleeding of the brake system. Yeah I did all my work in my driveway with no problems, you just need jack stands and stuff to do it.<BR>Let me know if you need more info or help

Yeah stas,<BR>Big difference in braking. Clutch was totally better. Replaced the rear rotors with slotted ones. Brakes are excellent and I do recommend the steel brake lines. I personally noticed a big difference in braking but there may have been other issues that were corrected when I did the install of everything. Email me if you want more info and heads up on issues I had doing it

These are the clips that hold the line ends on the brackets.<P>I had trouble getting the clips back in since they were a much tighter fit with the braided steel line. I removed the brackets and noted there was a plate to add thickness to the bracket. This plate was just spot welded on so I chiseled off easily. The clips went on snugly with the new line without a lot of cussing and fussing trying to force the clip on.
