agrees with your explaination, but since it gives u more feedback on ur paddle, u do not need to press as hard as b4. for me its an advantage, n since abs n ebd is quite standard for nissan, brake lock when pressed too hard can be countered, tho it render the better brake useless if your style is still like u used to be.
for me, its an upgrade that gives me more control over the car, i drove 1 with solely this hose on w/o any aftermarket pad, it gives me way more feedback than it used to be. when on track, this really gives u more security than spongy feeling ;) just my dua cent
