Brake Pads SS Lines ATE Super Blue

Just got done installing New AKEBONO EURO BRAKE PADS Low Dust, Sensors, Stainless Steel Brake Lines and flushed the system with ATE SUPER BLUE Fluid. Brakes feel Awesome real quiet. I'll update after a few days. I did it all in my garage, took me about 2 Hours. And I spent about $186.00. Can't beat that price. THANKS for DIY!!!!!!

I don't have that noise. But it seems to brake better today and much quieter. And the stainless lines look cool.

How did you bleed the brakes by yourself? I remember the good ole days when you had someone pump up the brakes, hold them down then open the bleeder on the back of the brake plate.

Do you have the stock rotors and did you have them resurfaced? Now that i think about it if it only took you 2 hrs you probably didn't remove the rotors.

I kept the stock rotors, they where changed about 7 months ago. I've driving the car for about 3 days, and they still feel great.
