Default Goodridge stainless brake lines

Just bought a set of Goodridge stainless steel brake lines from Steve Ganz at Carson Toyota. He just got these bad boys in stock.Goodridge is one of the leading stainless brake line manufacturers in the country. They pressure test every single line, which most manufacturers do not. I called Goodridge about two months ago and they did not make an application for the Gs3 or Gs4 but wanted to. So I told Steve Ganz to call and try to have an application made. He set it up with them and sent them a set of OEM lines. Steve said they are looking in to making other Lexus applications.I don't know how many sets Steve ordered, but at $126 a set they are a great deal!

I paid $99 for a full set(4) of Goodridge brake lines for my civic...same thing as for a lex......and that was considered high price....$129 is not a deal IMHO

Bdragon,

Sorry for the delay, Yes they are 4 lines included.


Cshflw,

I've seen cheap name brake lines selling for $140-$160. Also I would think that lines for a Lexus would cost more than for a Civic.

Tony,

No, I have not installed them yet. I'm planing on doing them next week. Along with my Powerstop cross drilled rotors and Ebc greenstuff pads. I'm gonna have them done @ Lexus of Manhattan In NYC.

thanks, John

did you buy all your stuff from Steve or did you buy from tirerack.com? How do you like the look of the power stop rotors? did you get the cross drilled/slotted or just slotted or just cross drilled.
How much for the EBC greenstuff pads?

Thanks

Tony

I have a 94' GS300 with Rod Millen front brakes and I have a leak in one of my stainless steel lines, can you help me out, will they fit my car, cost? I only need one for the front left, I really don't want to have to buy an entire kit. Do I have to replace the line with the same as what the kit came with, or can I use any stainless lines?
