Default SS Brake Lines - Where to get?

Does anyone know who has the lowest price on SS brake lines? Well, actually, does it matter if it's Goodridge, Stop Tech, or any other brand? I've looked thru vendor websites, generally, Goodridge sells for like around 170+, Stop Tech for 150+, then there (no brand...or didn't list) are some for around 100. Is this about right?

I've been looking for an upgrade on this for a while, but doesnt know who to go to for these. Thanks for your help~!

Goodridge would by my 1st choice, but try techna-fit. if you'd like to upgrade to BBK in the future then save your money.

I just bought the Goodridge lines myself. I tried searching for reviews on the different lines out there but came up empty so I figured I'd play it safe and go with what seemed to be acknowledged as the best. The way I look at it, this is one mod where the price difference between the different brands is so small that you may as well go with the top-of-the-line and pay a little extra for the peace of mind.

I'll let you know what I think of them once they've arrived.

If you're in Houston, you may want to check out Import Parts Pro. I think they're local so you may be able to save on shipping. I've purchased from them in the past and they have awesome customer service.

i like the quality. i've had goodrich lines on my 4th gen maxima and currently in my racecar and i don't know the difference. they installed perfectly and they look pretty durable with the teflon outer covering. i don't know why nissan didn't design it like that in the first place! the brake pedal feels a lot higher and definately a lot firmer...no more soft brake feel! you can try to contact gruppe-s and ask for that awesome deal.
