What brake lines?

I have an evo 4. And am doing a brembo upgrade from a 5 or 6. I am going to grab a set of braided brake lines. Thing is I have noticed that product numbers are different for lines for a 4 to a 5
So what do I get? Ones for a 4 which will fit the car
Or ones for a 5 which will fit the caliper??
Thanks

I will but I need to know what to order
Do I order a set for a 5 assuming the connectors on the body are the same as on the 4. Or do I need a custom set?
If so. This is a common upgrade. What details do I need?
Thanks.

That depends on condition of oem hoses, if new or only a couple of years old then i would say you wouldnt notice a huge difference changing, however if they have a good few years on them then changing to new stainless lines give a noticable improvment in pedal feel, when i changed mine on the old Evo2 i just did fronts first and difference was very noticable!
