Braided stainless clutch line

Hey guys, I read a post a couple of days ago where someone was wondering if a stainless braided clutch line makes any difference in the way the clutch feels.

Well, I got mine installed today (along with a new master and slave cylinder) and I did notice a difference. The pedal feels a lot more smoothe, before it would have more pressure near the floor than it did for the first half of the pedal travel. That could very well be caused by the new master and slave cylinder though.

I would have to say that for $18 it is worth it, if for nothing else but bling bling and peace of mind (new stainless steel hose isnt going to wear out anytime soon)

P.S. I hate taking out the master cylinder and hope I never have to do it again
