braided lines

[pete_clio]

which ones should i go for, where can i get them and what are the advantages....

changing because fluid never has been changed, pretty sure its boiled a bit because of a sticky caliper and it was bloody warm when i touched it....

thanks

PM richy off RMS pete, he works for ecp and can get goodridge lines cheap.

Oh as for advantages,you will see a lot stiffer pedal as theres no flex in the rubber!!!!

Are they easy to change? Do you need to the bleed the system?

Are brake lines car specific?

I take it it's just one line per caliper?

So your £40 lines won't fit my car then

Might invest mind you.

Do you get like uprated brake fluid or just any old?

K-Tec do their own set for the 172, I got them fitted with Red Stuff Pads front and rear, standard rear discs and EBC front Turbo Groove discs, and 5.1 DOT brake fluid. Did a full day Renault track day at Brands in May, the tyres started slipping long before any brake fade, my Friend (also driving) said they're the best brake combo he's driven and he works for BMW.

 

[pete_clio]

any problems fitting the front lines? did you really need to force them together to get the threads to grip?

They went on like a greased velvet glove.
