i was thinking of those but i noticed they only had a 1 year warranty while goodridge has a lifetime. not sure if it is worth 2x the price though
but i got scared and ordered the goodridge since i run those on my supra and motorcycles.

Yea they should put a lifetime warranty on these as they will never wear out unless abused and cost pennies on the dollar to make but I had the goodridge on my supra as well but the previous owner had installed them there was very minor differences in quality but nothing that would affect how it functions.

I would assume the Supra or SC lines would work without a problem, but I have not verified this personally. And in regards to the lines themselves, I do think it is worth it to pay a bit more and get a DOT and TUV approved kit, as they do have to go through pretty extensive testing to get that approval. I figure with something as important as your brakes, it's best to get the highest quality kit you can.

Your brake line is not seizing up your caliper. Its the piston in the caliper. Pry it out. 9 times out of 10, it's in there crooked. Once its out it should be able to slide in by hand.
