I have the Russell ones fitted on the ute, and a second set for the GTS.

Look excellent quality/price to me and as the Bard said: "What's in a name?"

Another vote for braided hoses! (I have APs on my car too)
Hardly ANY pedal travel before the brakes start working, then the pedal remains rock hard in all braking conditions.

I replaced the clutch line too. Stops the clutch going spongy with heat soak from the engine.

Ive got a braided clutch line, cant tell if it feels any different though due to new clutch etc. The only problem with mine is that its a bit long so i think its catching the steering setup somewhere and rubbing, going to have a nose underneath and make sure its fully tied back
