Brake Break In Time
 

So, I just got my pads, rotors, and fluid changed along with upgrading my lines to SS z1 lines on my sport 370z how long should take to break in because it feels like nothing was changed and i know stainless steel lines are supposed to help with that mushy feel.
Thanks in advance!

It takes about 10 minutes or so to break in brakes. Search for "brake bedding"

Well the issue is that the peddle feels more mushy than before which is why I'm asking because I know the SS brake lines are supposed to help get rid of that

You probably need to bleed the brakes some more. It takes a bit of bleeding to get all of the air out of each piston cavity. I had the same problem.

I use a vacuum bleeder that seems to work well on the Z brakes.

Will that mean that I'll need more fluid? Because that's what I thought the problem was initially.

You didn't say if you had the sport brakes or base in your OP. The base brakes are super easy as you only have one bleeder valve per wheel. The sport brakes are a little harder to do because you have two piston cavities to bleed, a inner and an outer piston set.

Start your bleed process by the wheel farther-est from the master cylinder which is the passenger rear. Bleed it until you have no air bubbles. Next go to the drivers side rear. Next go to the outer front passenger bleeder valve, next is the inner on the same side. Last will be the drivers side front starting with the outer side first and then the inner side.

Like I said, I use a vacuum bleeder from Griot's Garage that allows you to put a constant vacuum on the bleeder valve while you pump the brakes (very slowly). One trick to doing this right is to lightly coat the bleeder valve threads with a little grease so that air can't sneak by and give you air bubbles.

Good luck and I hope you get the feel that you are looking for with the brakes.
