Go figure. You can probably use the 89 lines since the suspension gear and caliper fittings are almost the same.

yea i thought they might work but i think i'm going to setup a GB so we can get a set meant for our cars and guaranteed to fit. I posted a thread on here, we'll see how much interest there is.

the only problem I see with a group buy is that you may be the only person that would want this....me on the other hand, I would like to have enough power to justify better braking.

yea i notice that no one has posted on the GB thread. SS Braided lines aren't just for when you have more power, as we all know stock lines tend to expand when the fluid gets hot. Oh well i guess i'll be the only one with SS Braided lines then

I might do SS lines some time in the future...but I really haven't found a need for them yet. I rather have a BBK system on when I do it....which hopefully by then, I'll be boosted.

I'd like to do it someday, but there are other things for which I need money, both Maxima related and non-Maxima related. I've always liked the Max's brakes so I'd love to improve them. But right now I just can't afford it.

Maybe if you could get them to work out some numbers first, people would have a better idea of what their dealing with. Good luck, it's cool that you're trying. Sorry I can't help, though.
