Hey Fellas !! Please help me out,

I own a 1994 R32 GTR With the Standard NISSAN brakes and i have some unknown brand of brake lines, but they are Braided thats forsure... I Live in Sydney so i wanted to get a replaced set that are ADR approved.

Now i've bought some from HEL and they have POSSIBLY supplied me the wrong set 2 TIMES unless the previous owner stuffed around with the fittings

Have a look at this picture ill send you and you will see the black line is the old one coming off the front wheel but the red one is the new set which are WAY to short. Now theve send 2 short ones and 2 long ones but the LONG ones dont have the same fittings as my old braided brake lines that go on the fronts. I am so confused right now because how can they send the wrong ones 2 times!! I was wondering if you have any pictures of your HEL braided lines u purchased so i can compare them to mine.

This is a picture of what i was talking about

IIRC my HEL braided lines were the same, its meant to be fixed to the metal line as it only replaced the rubber part

I'll try and take pic of mine later today to confirm for you, memory bit hazy but i recall it throwing me off as well

Check your PM, they are correct, i got my HEL lines from Import Monster and they were identical and went straight on after opening the thin clip holes on the front lines.

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
