oem brake lines - mr wayneker - 30-07-15
ive found the brake lines on my girl to be a bit spongy
so I have managed to get a brand new front and back HEL brake lines set any colour £60
anyone else on here have HEL lines? and are they any good?

Think they're all pretty much the same thing to be honest, braided are always better than originals though.
Re: oem brake lines - mr wayneker - 30-07-15
I was going to go with goodridge....but then remembered that I taught a forklift course for a company called hel performance
last year...so emailed the boss as an enquiry
and he said come down tomorrow and he will have the guys make upwhat ever I wanted for half price and any colour combo I want..so that sold me really
but like you say darrsi a braided line is a braided line I guss
think I shall go for red and black combo :b

I've got the HEL lines front and back and they're great.
If you buy direct from HEL There is a discount if you say you're a member on here too. 8)

I fitted Hel's a few months ago. very happy with them!!! a good fit and top quality.
give them a ring and say you are a forum member and they will give you a discount code to enter when you order online, I think the code gave 20 or 25% off so well worth making the call.

the last pick includes the little add on I asked for(black piping )
what a pig to tighten up the bolts where the two front join..had to take the
bracket off and put a spanner on one end and then I could torque it up with the
help of my son..
Re: oem brake lines - Frosties - 31-07-15
Nice job there fella - liking the red buuuuuuut, the yellow HEL sleeve really needs to be down by the caliper to look proper job. If you're going to do a job and all that.....c'mon :lol
