full length braided brake lines

[rc]

i remember seein somewhere on here someone running braided brake lines all the way from the master cylinder to each wheel,

where's the best place to get the brake lines from and what sort of prices are they? and how do you go about putting the unions on the end, as i take it comes in universal kit?

why do you want to fit full length braided brake lines?
they fit solid metal pipes for a reason, & the flexi hoses are kept to a minimum because of expansion under pressure. the braided ones reduce the expansion thus giving better pedal pressure, but fitting full length ones will make the pressure no better than factory standard, and maybe a little worse

i see, its actually for my LET Astra, i'm gettin rid of the abs system, so am goin to have to run all new brake lines around the car so was gonna use fancy braided! so would be better just to use the normal copper ones then?

Braided will be fine all the way through I have them on my Nova. Best place is rally designs.
