I'm thinking about buying some ss brake lines for the tegra.. I have the AEM big rotor kit on the front and stock discs on the rear. For those of you who don't know, the big rotor kit relocates the stock caliper (see pic). Since installation of the AEM kit, I've noticed there is a lot of stress on the front brake lines when turning tightly, so I was wondering if I should buy Type R lines since they are a little longer (from what I've heard). They should work fine, right?

 

If you want to measure the lines that you will be needing, I can make a custom brakelines for your big brake kit.

It will be the Goodridge Brakeline kit, DOT approved for street use, and guaranteed forever.

how much for gsr rears and type r fronts??

 

$ 95 shipped

 

I put Russell SS brake lines on my LS. There is enough slack in the lines to reach a big rotor kit, I would think. They don't use all the stock mounting points, only two out of the three on the front of my teg. The lines are meant to slide in the holders too.

 

just make your own

 

I used a garden hose.

Huh!... I used a length of over the counter steele braided line and some -3 fittings.

 

you can really make your own?? i did that with certain lines in my engine bay, but i wasn't sure about the connectors for brake lines...

 

Of course you can make your own... it is very easy... but but careful... brakes you know

 

yea.. $100 seems like a lot for some ss lines

 

It wasn;t the money for me.. it was the fact that when I upgraded my brake kit... I needed to make many of my parts, now you can just get them off the shelf

You can certainly make them yourself, just be careful with brakelines. Alll goodridge brake line comes with crimped hose ends, you can use the re-usable hose ends to make them yourself.

With crimp on, it can withstand a higher pressure and just remember safety foremost.

Here's the pics of it if you like,



It comes with all the lines, hose ends assembled (crimped on), new washers, banjo bolts and the brakeline tab locator.
