Any of you with the stock brembo running into issues about installing the Stoptech SS lines? My mechanic refused to install them because he said the lines have 'banjou' bolts that were modified to fit the Brembo (Brembo and non-Brembo use the same lines), and when he inquire about the torque spec for tightening the bolts, he was told by Stoptech to use his personal judgement, because the caliper is aluminum and the bolt is not. In light of me tracking the car, my mechanic said to me he's not comfortable installing them. Now I am leaving with this here not knowing what to do.

Maybe Stoptech can help me on this?

 

I've had them for most of the last four years and have had no problems. When rebuilding my calipers two weeks ago, I just snugged them down well, and checked later to make sure there was no leaking. It would be hard to get a torque wrench back there, anyway.

 

I have stoptech SS lines on my OEM Brembos and the mechanic who did em did not have any issues. I took my car to california speedway with plenty of hard braking areas and it worked great!
