upgrade to the stainless hoses. The stock hoses are a major failure point for these cars.

Corksport has had some problems in the past. Mine leaked like a siv so for that reason I would stay away.

Are you sure it's the lines and not the fittings?

don't bother - get new crushwashers and a dab of sealant on the lands first. Make sure there are 0 imperctions on the lands first.
