I'm looking for big blacks (928 GTS calipers) but will take 993TT calipers if i can get them cheaper/ easier. Can i use a Porsche brake line? Anyone ever try RS2 lines?

Default Benson Motors in New Orleans has 928GTS calipers for $275 ea.
I used a standard rubber line from a 100q, it is 16" in length.

Default The stock line has a short metal piece and a short rubber hose.
It can be made to work, but for like $30 for new rubber lines, its piece of mind.

Default StopTech has some nice SS braided ones.
Nice banjo on the caliper end, proper fitting on the hard-line end.

And they run about $100 for the pair. (IIRC)
