Brake Lines? Suspension Bushings? Little Mods...

[MP3Ben]

Hi peeps, I'm contemplating on whether to get some stainless steel brake lines for the car. I'm planning to change over the some better brake fluid as well. From other forums, they say it won't improve the braking tremendously (obviously, since braking power's also a combo of the rotors, pads, and tires), but will give a noticeable improvement in braking 'feel' on the pedal, making it easier to modulate.

Does anyone have any recommendations? And if I do this, around how much is it likely to cost, and from where? Anyone interested in a group buy as well?

Oh and I'm forgetting...does anyone know if polyurethane suspension bushings and/or engine mounts will be made for our cars? I think that'd be a nice little mod to round out the already great suspension (and get rid of the squeaking too). I e-mailed Energy Suspension but haven't received any reply yet.

And how much would labour run when installing them? Especially for engine mounts??

I know for sure that Mazda Motorsport has a rear tranny or rear engine mount for the Protege, Unfortunately, I don't remember what year protege. And I haven't been able to find anyone that makes lines for our MP3s

TriPoint lists SS brake lines but I'm not sure if they are selling them for the Protege yet.

WOW, talk about bringing a post back from the dead man. After I read my first post, I was thinking where the hell was my head at. Then I read when I had posted that. This post is originally over a year old. WOW

So you've had plenty of time to install the parts then??
