same reason i need to know the length of the rolla ones - not using matching brakes to the car, plus the coilovers mounting positions and so on may make things tricky

I've sent Goodridge an e-mail asking for all the technical specifications for the kits you guys requested. I haven't received a reply yet, I'll ring their UK office today and ask them for all of the specs. Plus what is said above is true, these kits were designed to replace OE lines, so they will be OE length, give or take a centimeter or so...

I just got a set for my JZA70R from the US and they had a notice inside saying they were one inch longer to allow for some car modifications. Although they are not guranteed in a modified car (go figure :P)

I called race brakes first and they didn't really sound all that on to it.
They make the kits @ $120 +GST a line as well which makes it definitely not worth my while....

As SK said, we tried Race Brakes first, but they don't stock the kits, and didn't seem at all interesting in ordering them. With the other option being to send it our current brake lines and they'll custom make replacements at ~$120 a hose. Which leaves those of us out of town are looking at a 3 day turnaround which is more realistically going to be a week.

I'm all for supporting local business, but if I can pick up something at half price, and not have to leave my car on stands for a week during which time air will be trying to work it's way all through my brake system to give me one hell of a headache, then it can't really compete.

Plus this way I can blame Hanré if anything goes wrong :lol:
