I've just received mine this afternoon, looks pretty good! But I wont be able to fit them for awhile... awaiting new brake rotors aswell.

P.S. have left a trader rating for ya

Got them today. Thanks for the effort. Will look forward to someone installing on his gtr and post the review on the DIY. Hopefully no dramas.

got mine as well yesterday .i notice not adr aproved label on them ??

Huh ;) I don't get what you mean, yours has a label that says "Not ADR approved"? Where?

I think he meant that there is no ADR approved label/stamped on them... if I remember right its meant to say ADR and have some numbers on it like it did on a rubber bit on the brake lines on my old R33.

it has "HEL FMVSS 106" on the black rubber, and the HEL logo on the yellow bit. nothing else
That's the bit you need for ADR approval ^

Correct.

Here is where I explained the ADR thing:

Ok so a few people (including myself) have been wondering how you can prove that aftermarket braided brake lines are legal for street use in Australia and whether the kits come with some sort of certification. Well after a bit of research there is a bunch of technical requirements and testing that they have to go through to get ADR approval, however the main proof for some one inspecting the brake lines is a boot with coding inserted onto each brake line to prove it has met all the requirements and makes them legal for street use.

Here is what the boot will look like on our brake lines to prove they are street legal. Therefore there is nothing to worry about. If any one has technical questions about this that I can not answer just give Hel in Australia a call.

You can also view on Hels website regarding the ADR sleeves at the bottom of this link:

These sleeves are what held us up for so long.

i am sorry for that i forgot that you told us how is going to be label .thats all good then :)

Also got mine on Monday.

The plastic package had popped open, though I think that may have been because the postie shoved it in my letter box, I never signed for it either....

All looked to be intact & undamaged so all good. Thanks again for the mamouth effort you put into this. Looking forward to getting these on my line.

    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.  
    • It is an absolute lottery. They can and have died at stock boost with low usage at all. The turbos are now anywhere up to 36 years old!
