AE92 AE92 GTS braided brake lines

Does anyone know somewhere (besides Ebay) to find some quality steel braided brake lines for a '88 GTS?

Can AE86 or MK1 MR2 lines be used or modified to work??

don't worry, I merged them both since everyone posted on both of them.

BTW for future reference, you click the EDIT button (bottom right corner of your post) then you click on DELETE and follow the instructions from there.

Have you upgraded your rotors & pads ? how about new brake fluid ? with the right setup the factory system works pretty well for street/track

What do you recomend? how much improvement can I get on a limited budget? I have replaced the old brown fluid with fresh stuff... can the fluid be upgraded? My GTS is no track car but Id like it to be safe and able to stop good on the road, as if I were to take it out for a tracky day or something.

just go to your loacal parts store & pick up 4 rotors & some quality pads. OEM Replacment rotors & pads arent really that expensive for our cars. if you replace all these at once & start over new, the brakes in your car will feel & perform great.. if & When you do this, Then decide if you want steel braided lines.

89yotarollagts is right about that. Now, the money that you would spend on steel lines would probably pay for a set or rotors and brakes. I would also put on the new rotors and pads before I swapped the lines. When you say you replaced the fluid; did you just refill the resovoir, or did you bleed the lines clear?
