SS Brake Lines

Has anyone put stainless steel brakelines on their CL-S, I want to improve my brakes, and I'd like to get SS lines, new pads, and maybe crossdrilled rotors in the front.

What do you guys think?
Any suggestions?

Thanks

From what I've read the SS Brake lines improve braking feel quite a bit. New pads would also help. Cross-drilled rotors can't hurt, but I'd wait until you needed new rotors before you spent the money.

BTW, nice poll .... however, since it's unrelated to your topic, feel free to start a new one in Ramblings

See here's the reason I posted this:
I was out driving my car, getting it real hot, and when I was braking for a corner, the steering wheel started violently shaking, and I assumed my rotors were warped. Well for my last service, I had them do a brake inspection. They said that everything is fine with the rotors. However, I know that's what it had to be. They are checking the car out again today, and I'll see what the verdict is. Figures that I need new tires, and new brakes at the same time.

Contact blxmjx concerning the Goodridge brake lines. I have them...just not installed yet...but from what I hear they're beneficial at higher speeds as opposed to just city braking. Also good braking is many factors: brake pads, rotors, and tires not just the line. I believe blxmjx does the brake lines $100 shipped.

I got the Axxis Ultimates Pads for about $126 shipped, but I have not installed yet. If you want, pm me and I give you the info on where to order them.

I got the lines from blxmjx and the pads from autocarparts.com. I think they were around $75-100 for the fronts and $50 for the backs, but don't quote me on the price
