Braided, flexible stainless steel brake lines replace the rubber brake lines leading to each wheel cylinder. Under heavy braking, hydraulic pressure inflates the rubber lines by a small amount. Stainless steel lines eliminate this effect, which makes the pedal firmer and easier to modulate carefully. Kits are available for the Neon, at around $75.
