Braided lines and fittings (Auckland)

[Emz]

Hello!

Does anyone know where I might find some decent, reasonably priced braided lines and fittings for my car? In Auckland please.
Last quote I got was pretty steep for the bits and pieces I want and I'd like to contact some other places to compare pricing.

Thanks

They are not cheap. You could try GSS or Alert Motorsport.
You could end up with over thousand of dollars worth of fittings by the end of the day. I would not recommend Cardwell because they are bunch of cocks.

I agree

if you go to Alert you can get them in any colour you like too - I have some sweet blue braided lines on my bike Bit pricey as they're made to order - mine were around $100 per line.

Cheers, got everything I needed from Alert today

what are they priced like? I got a oil feed for my 4AGTE years ago from GSS for about 70 I think it was.

Might be needing to do this again soon

Um I got about 8m of -12 and 5m of -8 plus a whole bunch of various fittings for just under 1k

for some reason I was thinking braided brake lines when I responded, but I have no idea why. Odd.

[nz_climber]

wow 13m of braided lines! Thats alot of line to put in, I thought my dry sump set up would use a lot, but 13m would go around my car at least twice or three times!!

[Emz]

Shes a big car
and yeh, its for my entire fuel system so pretty much will be going the length of the car and back

[bluemaumau]

[rollaholic]

[Bling]

Did you get pink lines?

I did too, was going to reply but re-read it

[Emz]

Did you get pink lines?

No!

(but maybe I would have if I had thought of that.... )

I know you have already done it but STA parts have some very reasonably prices lines if you need again.

[MrOizo]

What's STA like for pricing? Need to sort lines out soon

Really not bad - If I want a huge amount I journey out there but for small bits I just go to greenlane speed shop.

For example:
-8 braided hose = $11/foot
-8 0' fitting = $14.15
-8 90' fitting = $14.55

STA ones are really well priced.
But they dont use the brands like Green lane speed shop. ie - Aeruquip, Speedflow etc.
STA ones have no brand.

[Py7h0n]

Yeah... but who is going to look under my car and find that my fittings don't have Earls or Speedflow stamped on them - They work just as well!

I have my entire fuel system (front to back) setup with STA fittings and lines and no problems to date. 2x -8 feeds and 1 -8 return with all associted fittings and no leaks or issues to date .
