I've put SS brake lines on other cars and love how they feel. I'd recommend it. It definitely firms the pedal up a bit and gives you better response due to the rubber lines no longer flexing.
What's the cost for SS lines on all 4 corners? Was on my list of things to do as braking is important to me.

Well, i'm more of a DIYer, so i'd install myself
I find them for $90-150 for all 4 lines. Unsure as to where is the cheapest

Will def be on my list of things to do. I've always loved the feel after installing SS lines.

I have them, granted I installed with my brembo slotted rotors and HPS pads but I would say they firm up the pedal significantly. Everyone who drives my car comments on how high the brake pedal is and what little pressure it takes to stop.
If you are doing pads and rotors I say get the lines and do it all at the same time. I'm also running DOT 4 blue racing brake fluid.

Price is a little high, especially since you can get SS lines for less money that are just as good as Stop Tech. You're paying a premium on that name. As for pads, stick with OEM if you've got an OEM setup. There isn't a better pad out there. Some may claim to be better, but nobody has ever shown that an aftermarket pad actually stops better than OEM. And ignore any comments about fade. It's totally irrelevant unless you're tracking your car, in which case you wouldn't have an OEM setup anyway.
Our cars' OEM braking ability is truly outstanding, 60-0 in about 113 feet. Pretty much the only cars that are better are 3-10x more expensive. If a simple pad change could improve on the 113, you'd have read about it.

Amazing how many people never flush their brake fluid. I've looked under the hood of older cars and frequently see jet black fluid.
I flush yearly and always feel a difference in pedal response from that alone. I might do ss lines myself. I love how they firm up the pedal.

how about OEM pads on stoptech/powerslot slotted rotors with the SS lines? anyone have this set up they can comment on? i wouldnt mind have the slotted rotors just for the looks and keep the braking power by using OEm pads with them...
i put some russell ss lines on a few weeks ago and i love them. i think they were just around $100 or so. i didn't totally flush my brake fluid but, i did bleed the system really well and the difference in pedal feel is really great. no more spongy feeling when braking.
