some_cs_student Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Hey, Just want to confirm I got the correct braided brake lines as they look completely different to whats on the car. I've attached a pic of what the R32 GTR ones look like from the Markk group buy on ADR approved lines. Is this the correct ones for an R33? They don't look anything like whats on there now so I'm not sure about fitting them on.... Has anyone fitted there R33 GTR's ones? Are these the correct lines? Apologies for the terrible pictures, I don't want to take it out of the packaging if it is the wrong one....

markk Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 They are the right hoses mate. PM sent with further details. Cheers Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/218212-are-these-the-correct-braided-brake-lines-for-an-r33-gtr/#findComment-3854306 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Yeah, i received the incorrect ones, but it was no ones fault. Ive got a 93 r32 gtst M spec which should use the gtr ones pictured above, but it uses normal r32 ones which do not have the 'V' shape for the front lines. Ring Goran at Brakewest if you have any further problems. His customer service is excellent. Shaun.

some_cs_student Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 They are the right hoses mate.PM sent with further details. Cheers Thanks a lot Mark. I think my current ones must be aftermarket then, I have a 1 piece brake hose on the front with a bracket there to hold it, it doesn't look like these particular lines will be able to connect. I might need some other parts to put these in. Does anyone have a picture of what the factory R33 GTR lines look like? I'll try and post pictures of what my ones look like tomorrow.

some_cs_student Posted May 11, 2008 Author Share Posted May 11, 2008 I created this thread to confirm that they are standard lines. But still no idea how to fit them, does anyone have an install guide for the braided brake lines? Or any tips on how you installed them? I can't see how they would connect the existing system doesn't have block connectors on it at all.

Beer Baron Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 if they are the correct lines you should just unbolt your old ones from the caliper on one end and from the hard metal line at the other end, then install the new lines in their place. same process for front and rear. if that wont work then you have the wrong lines.

Sydneykid Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 I don't know which thread to respond in, so this is a quote from the other one. I can't see what your problem is. The braided kit only replaces the 2 rubber hoses, the standard steel hoses remain.On the front, the block bolts to the upright. One braided hose (from memory the longer one) goes from the block to the inner guard where it joins the steel tube at the right angle bracket on the inner guard. The other braided hose (from memory the shorter one) goes from the block to the joint for the steel tube that goes to the calliper. On the rear, the block end of the braided hose bolts to the steel hose that goes to the calliper. The other end of the braided hose joins the steel tube at the right angle bracket on the inner guard .
