Nope, never have.

Goodridge's customer service kicks *** though. I needed a new banjo bolt, and they sent me one free of charge. So just give them a call.

Lets see those pics.

 

i gotta get the wheel back off...i put some duct tape and 10 zip ties around it so i could make it home...forgot i had my camera with me til i was leaving...

 

How badly was it leaking fluid?

 

dont they have a "guaranteed forever" policy?

 

it was squirting like a foot

 

wait, so you drove your car home... without brakes...?

edit: and leaking brake fluid onto roads which people will then get on their paint?

my brakes just went out on me

 

That's why most manufacturers have gone to outter protective shielding on the brake lines to prevent dirt from entering the braid and wearing the teflon inner hose. That and you need to install the line to prevent movement the best you can.

I work for SPL Parts and we cater to the Nissan community, so I have alot of experience with the pro's and con's of what we sell. --- Just some credentials.

 

pix up

 

p-i-m-p right there

like I said, Im pretty sure they have a "guaranteed forever" policy and they will replace it for you

 

You should have bolted that **** out of the way of your wheel when you installed it. That looks horrendous. That **** didn't just happen, dude, sorry...

 

the triangle was bolted to the fork and the other piece was ziptied to the shock body.....teins dont have the bolt holes......."sobsob"..yeah right..i had a solid install with what i had

 

just throw some tape around it

 

that LINE DID NOT BUST by itself.......

it was rubbed raw and thin and then busted....that will not be a warrenty item@@@+++

Ditto looks like it was rubbing something...I have to check mine periodically, cause I have aftermarket suspension, and can't use orginal mounting bracket.

 

that is definatly from a shotty install... I havec 3 zip ties plus the stock hardware holding my lines where I want them so they wont rub...

didn't you just get your car back?

 

****, that looks nasty.

 

yes.
the NSX forums have horror stories of them busting, more often at the joint near the brake caliper fittings.
dirt/sand gets in betwen the stainless braids and the interior rubber hose.
then rubs a hole right thru, not good.
the rubber coated SS lines (like some neuspeed ones) are your best choice for a street car.

your looks like it might have rubbed on the fork or rotor?

I don't see how anyone making stainless lines could have much of a guarantee. One of the things that happens with stainless lines is that dirt can work its way into the brake and wear a hole in the teflon inner liner. Most braided line manufacturers don't bother putting a protective rubber coating on the outside of the line to prevent this. So bottom line is if you run stainless lines, you need to inspect them regularly and replace as needed.

 

^I know what you mean...but all their lines have "guaranteed forever" in huge font on the front of the box.
Its even on the website.

 

i thought i had a proper install but now looking at it i t does look as if it rubbed through on the tire or the rotor...i'll inspect my other tomorrow and see....
