    i have KVR pads on both my cars, and they dont fade nearly as quickly as run-of-the-mill stock pads. in fact i dont think ive ever had them fade on me... the same cannot be said for cheaper brands ive used.

      1967cutlass - yeah, autox isn't exactly hard on brakes.
      the asian geoff - just fresh DOT3
      therieldeal - good to know

      Do SS lines have much affect on pedal feel or braking strength on the Pro?

      One of the autox club guys has some 15x7 Falken Hanabis (lightweight!!) with Hankook RS2s for sale. Lets see how quick I can get some $$ together....

          therieldeal - interesting your comment on muffler replacement earlier. The last post on this thread suggests the same thing http://sccaforums.com/forums/thread/49072.aspx MUCH cheaper than a cat back too

            Just received Corksport SS brake lines today. I went with black to keep it low profile. They appear to be of good quality.

                No poly bushings for now, I run stock class, so they aren't allowed.
                Turns out SS brake lines are only legal for cars 92 and older in stock, so i can use them legally on my 90.
                The lines are getting installed today, along with switching the trans fluid to synthetic. I'll post pics later.

                  SS brake lines

                  The CS SS brake lines are installed. Replaced the mtx fluid with royal purple. Brakes are strong, trans shifts very nicely
