I have done the LS400 brake upgrade. By far the best upgrade and bang for the buck on a SC! I used SS brake lines and I like the brake pedal feel. The car now stops almost as well as my BMW now. I have an extra set of LS400 calipers that I may want to sell. Email me if your interested: draytonwebb@yahoo.com

Brakes look great! And I didn't know the stock 16's would clear LS brakes (even with 15mm spacers). Good to know, thanks!

I picked up a set of Calipers. Rebuilt units from Advance Auto. With my commercial account discount and all the core parts I got credit for ended up paying $48.00 for the two calipers. I gotta pick up some rotors and pads and Ill be putting them on very soon.

I plan on ordering from Stoptech as well soon but never heard of this problem. Why didnt it fit properly? did u order the SC300/400 brake line or LS400 brake line?

I got the SC lines. I don't know, I think the company shipped me the wrong ones (the box is in no way marked), and when I e-mailed them they told me my car must be weird and have 12 mm lines instead of 10mm like all the other SCs...

LS400 BBK W/PICS reply
I did the LS400 BBK last summer and learned that the pedal did have a weird feeling at first, so i decided to keep bleeding the brakes at all 4 corners to see if it would change the feel. After the 4th time regardless if any line had air in it the weird feel completely went away and have been perfect ever since....so i believe the feel of the pedal is directly related to how well the system is bled...
