Does anyone know if the fittings, brackets, etc are the same, in other words will stainless steel brake lines from an 03 NB fit a 94 NA?

Should fit OK.

Should be the same, only difference from memory is you use front ones on opposite sides. I have NBB brakes on my na and I compared the lines when I put them on, the only reason I didn't use the origional ones is the new brakes came with lines so I used them as they were newer.

Thanks fellas. CT: have you used SS lines? If so, is there a tangible difference?

All my cars have braided lines - road and race. It helps to promote a reliable pedal.

ONLY the 1.6 has the brakes pivot in the opposite direction.

NA8A and NB8A brakes are identical, NB8B brakes are larger (brackets, pads and rotors are different) but the hoses will be the same.

Braided hoses are good.
