Brake hose's make a world of difference...

WOW!!! My car had been pulling to the right hard for about 3 months on and off. It took all of my leg strength to keep my car at a stand still while at a signal light. And then it would take about 2 seconds for the left front tire to release. So today i bought some new brake lines. Only paid $22.00 for both. Its a completely different feel now. Much more responsive, and the car doesnt make feel like I'm about to die everytime I have to brake hard. I suggest that anybody who still has either the stock or old worn hoses to do what i did and get some new ones on there. Just thought I would share this with everybody.

Stainless Steel Hoses would have been a better repair and better results in the long run, but more MONEY.

I agree 100%. BUT, I dont see myself on keeping the stock brakes. At some point I plan on doing either a Baer or 1LE upgrade. So for now i think 22.00 was a good deal.
