Hey guys
I have noticed recently while having my car loaded up and pushing it a bit harder and asking more of my brakes that they don't feel as strong as I would like and I have to put a lot of force onto them to slow the car down. I have recently replaced the front disks and pads and it hasn't had a huge impact. They are still good and work fine but I would like them to feel a bit stronger under foot. I was looking into replacing the hoses with braided lines but was wondering if you guys had any other ideas. -------------------- 1997 White ST202
