I've read a number of posts on the other board about upgrading the OEM rubber hoses with these (or similar):

Can anyone comment on who has upgraded their brake lines and what improvements they saw and whether they feel it is worth the upgrade? I don't plan on auto-crossing, but for daily driving.

Mine are still sitting in the shed waiting for a free weekend :( I think Charlie and at least one other member did theirs. Look for thread on "brake bleeder".

I've done mine. They were easy to install, I definitely felt a difference as far as brake feel. For the ~70 bux I paid, I feel they were worth it. Just keep in mind they don't do alot as far as shorting your brake distances down, mostly firm up the brake feel and provide a faster grab to the brakes (say instead of 20% pedal pressure it now takes 10% to apply the some amount of brake pressure to the pads).
