I actually fitted most of my lines on the z with braided lines(even turbo oil return), you can buy almost anything you need directly from summit for decent pricing. However, my after thought on it is that it wasn't a worth while modification... Yes, to some people it adds a "wow factor", but it also makes it more difficult in some ways as well. I honestly wish i would have stuck with stock rubber lines on the stock steel tubes. Braided lines and fittings get very expensive, very quick... Yes, the braids are added abrasion resistance, but not worth the added cost since nissan designed steel tubes to shorten the length of the rubber lines... On top of that, most braided lines people use are actually still rubber inside that dries out just as easily as any other rubber lines. You can step up to teflon lines which some say lasts "forever", but even it has a limit, it kinks a lot easier and becomes worthless in seconds. plus, when has anyone ever said, "hey, I bet if I spent $400 on coolant lines my car will be faster". Trust me when I say, stick with rubber, or if you want to make it a little nicer, try to find a silicone line that's reinforced and can hold up to the high temps(silicone is best used only on vacuum lines because of this downfall).
