AeroCat, I'm still doing some research on the lines. Most are basically stainless steel braided with options of different colored sleeves. Have noticed Spieglers in Germany offer's either option sleeve or sleeveless, not sure about the legal issue.
Something for Busa owners to consider is 2 lines straight down or as OEM 1 line down the other over the mudguard. They say 2 straight down is better for bleeding and better for the 2nd caliper. The negative if perceived is having the 2 banjos up top instead of the current 1.
Having the Copper Bus, the only acceptable sleeve color might be the clear or smoked. Point taken as above for stainless banjos. So far the average price is around $100 a line, mostly put together by importers of Goodrich. Seems a bit exhorbitant, but profit is also the name of the game.
I changed my OEM pads to EBC HH as recomended above some 20k ago and due for replacement soon. But found the EBC pretty noisy initially and I did glaze them. Am not sure whether to stick with the EBC or perhaps go back to OEM. The rears are finally close to a change, theyre still OEM done 42k.
Will advise what I finally do, but dont necessarily wait for me as I can often take my time and do it when I have satisfied myself covering all the angles.
