SS brakelines, questions

First off does someone make them for the R56? and if so, did you notice a difference with them? I had SS brakelines on a previous car (2000 Contour SVT) and noticed the pedal pressure was ALOT harder and gave me even more confidence. The stock brakes on the R56 are VERY good IMO and would like to make a good thing that much better

We have them in manufacturing now. When they're in stock, I'll announce it on this forum.

I haven't even looked, but would the R53 lines fit? I do know the R56 calipers are similar, but now manufactured by TRW instead of ATE. Just an idea.

To answer your question about feel. I could discern no difference from the SS lines. Some vendors have even told me that the stock lines are very good.
