Under hard or repeated braking, the rubber lines flex and expand under pressure, so part of your pedal effort balloons the lines instead of clamping the brakes, and the pedal goes soft right when you're leaning on it. These Goodridge braided stainless lines fix that: a PTFE inner line in a stainless steel braid that doesn't expand, so the pedal stays firm and consistent. On an RSX that sees street, autocross, or track use, it's one of the most worthwhile brake upgrades you can make.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy Braided Lines Firm Up The Pedal\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHere's what's actually happening, and what these do and don't change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRubber brake lines flex and expand under the pressure of hard braking, and that expansion is what you feel as a soft, spongy pedal, part of your foot pressure is stretching the lines instead of applying the brakes. It gets worse the harder and more repeatedly you brake, and as the factory rubber ages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe stainless braid around these Goodridge lines minimizes that expansion, so more of your pedal pressure goes straight to the calipers. The result is a \u003cstrong\u003efirmer, more responsive pedal with more consistent feedback\u003c\/strong\u003e, especially during repeated or aggressive braking where rubber lines go soft. To be clear about what braided lines do: they improve pedal feel and consistency, they're not a substitute for better pads, rotors, or tires if you're chasing shorter stopping distances, but for how the brakes feel and respond through a session, the difference is immediate and genuine. On a tracked DC5, a firm, predictable pedal is real braking confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003ePTFE Core, Stainless Braid\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe construction is what makes them firm and durable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach line is a \u003cstrong\u003ePTFE inner line\u003c\/strong\u003e (which handles brake fluid and heat without degrading) inside a \u003cstrong\u003ebraided stainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e outer layer that provides the firmness and protects the line from abrasion and corrosion. Stainless braided lines hold up far better over time than rubber, which cracks and degrades with age, and they look the part under the car too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGoodridge is the name in braided brake lines, developed for motorsport, and these go through a nine-point quality-assurance process, each line tested for tensile strength and pressure-rated to 3,000 psi. They meet FMVSS 106 (the federal brake-hose safety standard), are DOT compliant, and are TÜV approved, so they're properly certified, not just a cosmetic braided line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eComplete 4-Line Kit, Direct Bolt-On\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEverything for the install is in the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 20104 kit is a \u003cstrong\u003ecomplete 4-line set\u003c\/strong\u003e, two front and two rear, with all the hardware, adapters, banjo bolts, washers, and line locators, so there's nothing else to source. The hose ends and mounting are vehicle-specific to match your factory design, so it's a \u003cstrong\u003edirect bolt-on\u003c\/strong\u003e replacement for all the factory flexible brake hoses, using your factory calipers with no modification. It's a straightforward swap, you're replacing the lines one for one and bleeding the system, with no change to your calipers or overall brake configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThey're ABS-compatible, and on ABS-equipped cars they also help reduce the pedal chatter you can feel through soft rubber lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFitment\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e2002-2006 Acura RSX (DC5), Base and Type S\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePart number 20104.

Direct fit, works with factory calipers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is for the RSX Base or Type S owner who drives the car on the street, at autocross, or on track and wants a firmer, more consistent brake pedal instead of one that goes soft under repeated braking. PTFE-core stainless braided lines that minimize the expansion of the aging rubber, a complete four-line kit with all the hardware, motorsport-grade certification, and a straightforward bolt-on that keeps your factory calipers and brake setup. It won't shorten your stopping distances on its own, but it firms up the pedal and makes hard braking confident and consistent. Bolt them on, bleed the brakes, and feel the difference the first time you push the pedal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFits:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2002-2006 Acura RSX (DC5), Base and Type S. \u003cstrong\u003ePart number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20104. \u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e braided stainless steel brake line kit, complete 4-line set (2 front, 2 rear). \u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e PTFE inner line, braided stainless steel outer, 3,000 psi rated. \u003cstrong\u003eBenefit:\u003c\/strong\u003e firmer, more consistent pedal that holds up under repeated braking; minimizes the expansion of flexing rubber lines. \u003cstrong\u003eIncludes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 lines plus adapters, banjo bolts, washers, and line locators. \u003cstrong\u003eInstall:\u003c\/strong\u003e direct bolt-on, works with factory calipers (no change to brake config). \u003cstrong\u003eCertification:\u003c\/strong\u003e FMVSS 106, DOT compliant, TÜV approved. \u003cstrong\u003eUse:\u003c\/strong\u003e street, autocross, and track.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n \n\u003cli id=\"VehicleFitment\"\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"tag\"\u003e2002-2006 Acura RSX Base\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"tag\"\u003e2002-2006 Acura RSX Type-S\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\u003cli id=\"TechnicalData\"\u003e\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003cli id=\"InstallGuide\"\u003e\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Goodridge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68603362344994,"sku":"GOO-20104","price":171.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2218\/5701\/files\/GOO-20104_jcp8.jpg?v=1791991313","url":"https:\/\/www.hybrid-racing.com\/products\/goodridge-g-stop-brake-lines-for-02-06-acura-rsx","provider":"Hybrid Racing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
