got my lines this arvo.

Fitted already, just gotta wait for my callipers to come back from rebuilding :thumbsup:

Thanks for the awesome Group Buy

*Thumbs up*

got mine the other day just opened them today to fit them and noticed they don't have ADR tags but do have FVMSS tags which is the european ones is that normal? are they still legal for our roads?

PM sent. Yes they are legal, those are the ADR sleeves that we discussed in the first group buy thread.

hey PM-R33, mine have the black tags on them as well, i assume this is that ADR sleeve you speak of? Is it possible to chuck up a picture of what the ADR sleeve looks like so we an easily confirm?

It's just the black sleeve that has the wording FMVSS-106 on it at the end of each brake line, that's it (you all have them as I checked each kit to make sure). Part of ADR is to have that sleeve on there but it isn't just that sleeve that makes it legal, it's the way the entire lines are constructed.

I went over it a bit in the old group buy thread but at the end of the day I am only limited to my own research I have done on the subject, if any one wishes more technical information about them just call Hel Australia or Hel UK.

Is it best to go to a brake specialist to install the braided brake-lines.

Who in Brisbane?

Have never done this and don't want to screw this up else it might be the last thing I ever do !

How may hours to do front and back replacement on a 1996 non turbo skyline?

Whats a reasonable cost?

    • No......not yet Minister for War and Finances has stated that the Commodore has to go first Not that I am going to modify the NC any more than what it is already modified now.....
    • Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far
    • January or Feb is it booked in for turbo fitment?
    • The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
    • Paint is only structural when applied to the outside of Chinese and Indian cars. Otherwise it should never be present between mechanical joints that were intended to be metal to metal. Pain slips, slides, cracks, compresses, and add thickness that wasn't intended to be there. It comes firmly under the category of "just no".
