SS lines
Are SS lines worth it? I know that they're a good upgrade for brakes, but just how much difference does it make? Same thing with SS clutch lines, how much difference?

I do not feel much difference in my car with them, but my brakes were top notch before I installed them. I had a rubber line fail so I just replaced them w/ss.
Never done the clutch but my buddy has. I'll ask him.

I don't think the clutch line will make any difference whatsoever. Not enough length to make a difference. The brake lines are a different story though. From what I have read they stiffen up the pedal feel quite a bit. This would be a good thing, as the stock feel is very soft. I have not yet installed mine, probably this spring. My advice would be to buy SS if you have a rubber line failure. If you have to replace anyway, why not upgrade?
of course that's just my opinion, I could be wrong,

I switched to the RP Online SS braided clutch line when I replaced the clutch with the RB street/strip clutch, presure plate, and the light weight flyweel and I noticed an improvement over the stock lines. Not to mention that the stock lines do fail more often...
here is a link to the clutch ss lines:
