i replaced my brake pads with hawk pads bought from tirerack.com. and my brake lines with steel braided lines bought also from tirerack. then i bled the calipers. i haven't done this before so it took like 5 hours. i started with the right back brake. i couldn't make the piston go inside. went out and bought a clamp, still couldn't make it go in. called someone and he told me to turn the piston clockwise and use the clamp at the same time. this was a pain in the ***. on the second brake i tried just turning the piston and it worked. i didn't have to use the clamp. on the front i had to use the clamp. the front was easy. i had someone help me bleed the brakes. over all it was an easy upgrade. i still haven't had a chance to ride my car so i can't tell u the difference yet. i'll write later how my car performs. later

Well at least you got the job finished

Let us know your take on the Hawk pads, and what brand steel brake lines are they?
