Fitted some Braided Brake lines Front and Rear today .
Man what a differance in the pedal feel and braking performance

totally stoked.
All up it took me 3.5 hrs to pull the tools out to putting them away .
A job well done and well worth it .
AND if you look Closely you can see the carpet floor in the Garage

Where did you get your brake line set from. I heard the rear ones have trouble fitting.

I import them and sell them

As for the Rear , the right rear inner is a little tight for room
and as you can see in the photos above the left rear is real easy

Nicely done Ray.
You are tempting me again. how much of an improvement with pedal feel? is it even better since you have better suspension. I noticed my pedal feel was much better when coilovers went in..
Did you use DOT4 brake fluid? Assuming you will take this yaris to the track one day with the mods you have done =P~

as for the pedal feel , its a lot more consistant , no more waiting for the brakes to bite .

Steel braided brakes are always sexy and this is no exception!
