DAAAMMNN!! That was scary!!

If it's not one thing, it's another on the car. I just got it back from the muffler shop ($600) with a manifold back, Magnaflow exhaust...sounds a little "ricy", but I don't mind. Found a back road to open it up a little and see how she's running....very nice! Had to hammer the brakes for an upcoming curve (90 deg), pedal goes to the floor!!! Parking braking and drifting through it, THANK GOD no one was coming the other direction. Got it home and found the hard line on the left rear brake blew, looks like corrosion did it in. So I ordered all the brake lines, front, center and rear, and a set of SS lines to the calipers. Has anyone replaced 'all' of the brake lines before? It's looking like it's going to be an absolute nightmare.
