Hel Stainless Steel Braided Clutch Line Group Buy


Recommended Posts

I have no idea man. You got a link? I could never find whether it was a replacement of the whole line or just the rubber line. In theory though there is no need to replace the hard lines since they can't expand.

Too easy Ben, glad to see the QLD guys are getting them today.

Yeah I wasn't really sure on what the GTR line replaced since it was a different length than the GTST one. But I figured you GTR boys have some weird funky setup due to the AWD hence it being different :P

I think the GTST one replaces the block, but I shall soon see.

Well, I got one for my GTS-t, not the GTR..... Box is marked "suit 32 GTS-t" but I've been looking this morning and I'm mildly confused. lol

Let me know what you guys find?

Oh yeah that's right, you had a GTST kit, my bad :P

My mate has his engine out at the moment so i'll quickly dummy fit the clutch line from the master cylinder and see how it all fits.

So here is the clutch install on my mates GTST.

As you can see it replaces the entire factory setup :D

Here is the massive factory line removed.

For those kids keeping track of their cars diet here are the results:

Factory setup - 828g

New clutch line - 97g

Weight saving of 731g

Not bad ay :)

It's finished man, hence the pictures above of them fitted.

If I do one again i'll let you know.

Groovy!

My engine and box is out at the moment so I couldn't get a picture of it in my mind. That's a great weight saving! I'd spend an entire day trying to save that weight elsewhere :D

Yeah it's pretty decent. And in reality it would probably be closer to 800-900g because there would be less fluid used in the new clutch line compared to the amount that runs in the factory line :thumbsup:

That looks awesome getting rid of all that factory crap lol will be much neater. Will have to put mine in on the weekend. Pics help alot

Thanks again Phil :)

Thanks guys.

I'm going to look into whether HEL would do some custom made braided lines to replace the four brake lines on the firewall (for ABS models) or two brake lines on the firewall (non ABS models) that go from the master cylinder.

No real "performance" benefit but I figured for the good prices we are getting these at it would be a nice looking mod in the engine bay :) I've seen a few pictures of guys that have done it and it looks quite good.

I'll let you guys know if some of you would be interested; I know one of my mates is very keen.

    • Thanks Pac!   I will reach out to them!
    • Yes, but 2 things of the top of my head, 1. Legalities of nitrous on a street car. 2. No chop chop. I fully understand that there's much cheaper ways to make power, and whilst a wet 50 shot is fairly cheap to install, bottle fills are expensive, and bottles always need to be refilled, and nitrous also has its own inherent issues with reliability, and tuning, from my experience of others using nitrous, it doesn't take alot to lunch a engine real quick if something goes slightly wrong when spraying, if I wanted a big chunk of additional powers, a spooly boy would make alot more sense, disregarding the additional engineering, supporting mods and other logistical issues of sticking a spooly boy on a car that came naturally aspirated from factory  In the end I'm not racing for sheep stations, and I don't really care if people make more power, or are faster than me, or spend less, or more than me, the only thing the car needs to do is drive around and make me smile, which it is doing now Really, I just want a shiny new intake to look at when I'm cleaning the engine bay, and of course, some more induction doorts, and maybe even that 5kw for that elusive 200hp cherry on top that I might get If the FAB9 intake plenum, TB and air filter box thing doesn't eventuate for whatever reason, Plasmaman do one, not as fancy looking, and a fair chunk of more cash is required when including the TB and other bits and pieces that are required to install it, but, it is another option that is available to me if FAB9 one does fall down (but I really, really.....really, want the FAB9 one though) TL;DR. You want what you want
