Check out http://www.speedwaymotors.com

They have -3 and -4 braided and kevlar brake lines for damn cheap.

It's good stuff, used some of their kevlar lines on a custom disc swap.

Also have stainless braided with 90 degree fittings

They would work but I need them longer than 48 inches, i have to go to the prop valve under the dash to the rear disc brakes. Anyone know any more info? Thanks as always!

I can get them made but I would need an exact length and the exact fittings that would need to be used. There is an industrial hose supply shop near me that does custom work @ great prices. They have nearly any fitting imaginable for brake lines.

PM me the following:

Specific Length of each line
Type of Hose Ends you want, straight, 45º, or 90º
Already know you need -3 AN

These are crimped, not Earl's DIY

... or contact http://www.hosenow.com (Detroit Flexible Metal) - they also can make you anything you want to your specifications. I use them because they're local to me, always can find / make what I need, and the pricing is reasonable.

the place near us does DOT approved stuff (stainless braided with clear rubber coating on the outside) all profesionally crimped, no diy put it together yourself type stuff

yes, you can tell them what its for, they do custom brake lines and such for cars /motorcycles/ whatever. its mainly an industrial hose/hydraulic type of place. they have a bunch of fittings and what not there too.
i dont think they would let you leave the place with a "non dot" approved hose for a brake line. maybe for a racecar, but i guess that relates back to how much you tell them

most of the DIY stainless hoses are not teflon lined and that's what you need for high pressure.

make sure if you are mating up to any stock fitting to check what flare you have.


some Hondas have a metric BUBBLE flare while a few others(gsr mc port) have double flare.

on dc5's all fittings are metric BUBBLE flare tho.

you can go to a place like napa auto parts and buy pre flared lines with fittings. use the fitting end and flare for your prop. then use a -3 an going to a bulkhead to mate up the rear lines.
