    My dad had his burst as well on him in his old car one time - pretty scary situation he said.

    I upgraded to braided steel lines...

    Yes but JDM cars are thoroughly inspected before they are deemed legal for driving on our streets.

    Honestly, could have been any car - probably driver error.

    Poor bus stop though?

    So you can experience a higher rate of failure than you would experience by simply replacing the stock lines with correct new rubber ones?

    Nothing I love more than people who talk right out their ass.

    UPGRADING to steel brake lines has many benefits, such as improved reliability, high abrasion resistance, and little-to-no line expansion during braking; hence less lost pressure going into malleable rubber lines, and instead full pressure making it to the calipers.

    Thanks for coming out.

    Just to shut some of you up I went up to that intersection today to check it out for myself. With cars driving by at 60kph I was able to see them for a total of 9 seconds on average before they were in the middle of the intersection. Going twice this speed, the skyline would have been visible for approx. 4.5- 5 seconds, enough time for a bus shelter to avoid a reckless driver.

    Bus shelters ftl.

    I even videotaped it, give me a sec to get it up here.

    lol, cheap shot dude - and besides, in this situation the "bus shelter" didn't drive into the middle of an intersection when unsafe to do so. At least I went up to do the research.
