Am happy with my brakes now.
T2's and Bendix Ultimates with the braided lines..
Not sure of any difference the braided have made (wasn't consciously looking for differences when they were swapped in, so didn't notice anything that struck me)
Am pretty sure that the pads were the main thing that caused an improvement for normal day to day driving (original were extremely disappointing), with the rotors and the lines being more of a support role - allowing a far more consistent stopping power when the brakes are getting a workout.
