Hi All
 
couple of quick questions, first what is the standard MK2 brake line connector into the caliper size? I'm guessing M10x1mm please correct me if i'm wrong.
 
and, has anyone had dealings with HEL Performance brake lines, they do online ordering and this seemed pretty convenient as you can order direct from the site custom flex lines, not deeply concerned about ADR compliance (race car, even though I think they are ADR) but would like to know the good, bad or ugly. Based on the website, they look the ducks nuts. How pricey are they comparitively to the rest of the market in your experience for the "build your own" option?

I'm considering replacing the solid lines with flex for ease of installation across the diff due to six link construction, would love to hear you opinions.

Given they are ADR approved then they'd be no better or worse than anyone else.
 
Most good brake shops can do braided these days so you may have someone close to you you could use.
 
Cheers,

Thanks Matt,
 
i wasn't too concerned with the quality, they seem pretty good based on their website, just seeing if anyone was going to scream Noooooooo!!
 
still questioning myself about the fitting sizes, M10x1mm is that correct for standard M16 MK2 calipers?
 
cheers guys...

That price looks pretty damn good, I don't think I could come close to matching them with home made speedflow/goodridge or similar known parts, I think Ill be ordering some replacements for my home made wildwood lines on the swift making it only slightly less illegal.
I like the ordering system too. PC don't judge you for ordering upgrade parts for grannies car!
Quality will be fine assuming they come with relevant ADR compliance and markings.
 
Cant help on Caliper thread however, never had any.
 
Cheers JP
