Hey guys, did some searching on here but wasn't able to find what I needed.
Looking for stainless steel lines for a 3rd gen. I know Corksport includes a set with the crazy BBK but I'm looking for an a la carte option for use with my mostly stock brakes.
My reasoning is simply to improve brake feel as the stock brakes even at their peak have always felt a little spongy in the pedal.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Get better pads. That will help far more than the new lines.
Change your brake fluid also.

Currently on PowerStop pads with stock rotors, just ordered centric StopTech front rotors and replacement pads. Any suggestion on brake fluid that will improve brake feel? Car is DD'd with some spirited but non-track driving.

Just as clarification, I gather there aren't many, if any, places to get off-the-shelf steel lines? I know due to the placement of the master cylinder a brace is out of the question in aiding feel.

I used techna-fit lines on my 2017... Not sure if anyone else makes the at the moment.

Thanks Chutoyy!
How is the brake feel with the upgraded lines?

Uhhh.... You can still feel some firewall squish when you first apply the brakes, but it firms up quicker w/ easier modulation... But I'm using stock pads right now cause Centric can't seem to send me the correct rear brake pads. -___-'

Thanks again, I'll add these to the list!

Hi Chutoyy, what kind of mud flaps you have on your car? could you please post some pics at different angles? thanks in advance! :smile2:

Don't forget you can get custom brake lines made in a variety of materials and colors. But as pointed out the first thing to improve brake feel and performance is by a complete brake fluid replacement. And more consideration of the pad choice, which has higher benefits then other brake components on anything except a track only vehicle.

you can get AutoExe ones from Japan.

I'm looking for SS brake lines also and the ones suggested in this thread are just for Japan built cars... anything out there for the Mexico built cars?

Raising this old thread again. At 42K, my 2018 GT would benefit from a modest brake upgrade, so I just ordered the recently-announced CorkSport Stainless Steel Brake Lines and a set of EBC standard rotors and GreenStuff pads (for my Mexican-built machine, kits S11KF1715 and S11KR1438). I'll be doing that fun in a couple of weeks.
