I'm sure the derv has the same suspension & brakes as the 180.

all cars will benefit from having braided hoses fitted. the response will be quicker and sharper than regular ones with a few miles on them. if you don't feel any improvement there is more than likely an underlined problem some people aren't good with "feel" in cars so if you are one of them, no need to upgrade at all. only upgrade if you feel your current brakes aren't enough for your driving as they aren't exactly cheap

Had them on the scooby, a worthy upgrade, to be honest i dont feel they would be a worthy upgrade for the ZS as they seam to suffer from a sinking/creeping brake pedal so they will always feel a little soft if the pressure is getting lost...

The derv uses the same shocks/springs as the 180 due to the weight of the engine, but the brakes are the same as the 120
