Brake pedal feel
Curious if anyone know if there is a way to improve the brake pedal feel. As many have mentioned, it's a bit soft. Would changing the brake lines to some SS lines help?

Ronnie-
I upgraded my brakes to the C32 kit and also the steel braided hoses. There is a definite difference right away. I replaced both front and rear. Also changing the fluid would help too.

Greg - I've flushed the brake fluid out and put in some of the super blue brake fluid, but didnt notice much.
I'm in the same boat as roozy...would changing the lines improve the feel?

You would definitely feel the difference when you step on the pedal. The steel braided lines keeps the hoses from expanding like the rubber ones. Therefore less expansion the quicker the reaction.
