marko72 Posted November 7, 2010 Posted November 7, 2010 Sorting out my brakes at the mo. Was thinking of getting stainless brakes lines. Are these a worthwhile upgrade? Do they actually do anything better than oe? Who is better Hel or Goodridge, Hel a bit cheaper it seems. Anyone got these on their car? Thanks Marko.
euan_r Posted November 7, 2010 Posted November 7, 2010 ive got hel ones on my car. came fully stainless throughout including new banjos, where as the goodridge ones you need to pay extra to get fully stainless if i remeber correctly. i got mine from hose solutions on here at good discount way after group buy had finished.
wrx kenny Posted November 7, 2010 Posted November 7, 2010 got hel braided on as well cant fault them m8 kenny

BalliSTIc Posted November 7, 2010 Posted November 7, 2010 Am suspecting the difference you'll notice Hel vs Goodridge is probably minimal... surely what's more important is braided vs stock or your pad compound as to how much of a difference you'll make?
scooby222 Posted November 8, 2010 Posted November 8, 2010 ive goodridge and no problems but id have no problem putting on hel either. i put mine on with mintex pads and new fluid and definitely had a sharper more positive pedal response,woulnt hesitate to do it again!
marko72 Posted November 8, 2010 Author Posted November 8, 2010 Thanks for the replies fellas. Am suspecting the difference you'll notice Hel vs Goodridge is probably minimal... surely what's more important is braided vs stock or your pad compound as to how much of a difference you'll make? Thats my point, if they are going to be better than stock? Im putting on new discs, pads with recon calipers, so thought why not go the whole way and uprate the lines as well.

marko72 Posted November 15, 2010 Author Posted November 15, 2010 Got HEL braided lines. Will get them on the car shortly. Bit cheaper than RRP but not group buy prices. Cheers.
