hahaha

if u dont get a satisfactory answer, just ask for the money back champ.

We have an explanation as to why it is taking so long.

HEL ordered 10,000 ADR sleeves from the manufacturer for their UK branch and their international distributors to refill supplies. Therefore since there is such a large order of 10,000, it is taking a lot longer than they thought it would take and we unfortunately got caught up in the middle of it all (Just my bloody luck!). They once again apologise for it all and promise this won't happen again.

They are still expecting the sleeves any day now and as soon as they receive them the last ones from our batch will be completed and they will all be sent.

I will get a phonecall as soon as the ADR sleeves get there.

So hopefully it isn't to much longer.

Mate either they are spinning you complete and utter rubbish, or your kits should be arriving soon.

I had been waiting for this group buy to arrive, as I was waiting to hear the outcome on which kit i needed for my GT (if you remember, I'm the guy that asked whether i needed R33 brake lines to suit my calipers, or R34 brake lines because my car is an R34). But i got a bit impatient and decided to just order a kit for an R33, and if they don't fit then i could just sell them and get the other kit.

So i placed my order on the 28th of May. I have just received the kit today, with the ADR sleeves attached. So I'm not sure what their deal is, but they clearly have the ADR sleeves ready to go.

[PM-R33]

Well I dunno, if any one wants they can give them a call themselves to verify what they told me. It's out of my hands until they get here unfortunately.

Did they come from the Australain HEL agent or the UK one?

Did they come with any the factory like mounting blocks or are they just hoses which are a bit useless like the ones I received

from Hel Aust.?

I hope the UK ones include the mounting blocks like the factory lines

Nah mate, came from UK. I believe it is just the hoses, but i don't really know what the mounting blocks are that you are talking about... Basically the only thing in the kit are the hoses and some washers, the ADR sleeves are attached, and the two longer hoses have a black plastic sort of thing on them that can slide up and down the hose, don't know what it is for... Are those the mounting blocks lol?

[mattis96]

also ordered my kit 2 weeks ago and got it a week ago for 33gtst. its just hoses with no mounting plate but does have a weird thing you can position where you want on the front lines...

[PM-R33]

I wouldn't be half suprised if these kits you guys bought are actually the ones that were completed from our group buy (they told me most of them were done before they ran out of the sleeves) and they are just going to replace them from our order once the ADR sleeves get here. That way it doesn't keep you guys waiting but leaves poor Phil waiting 6 months to get his damn lines lol.

[BadAssR33]

was hoping to get some of these too

but doesn't matter just found this

http://shop.ebay.com.au/hel_performance_au...3911.m270.l1313

i ordered a kit from here and they arrived without any ADR sleeves on them

i messaged them and they said they will send them out to me

i hope they can be fitted on to the already assembled lines ???

got a random question.

the hard lines that lead back to the brake master, are these all the same?

as im about to put r33 brakes on my c33 laurel.

Yeh mine are exactly the same... Is the mounting block vital?

lol! i just checked this thread to see what the status was and bam! no lines.... these guys are hopeless

meh, i'm in absolutely no rush, still gotta sort wheels and rotors out for the car..... wonder if they will be here for when Nick comes up next!

[robbo_rb180]

i am in no rush for these Phil, car still isn't running yet.

[Basti]

Also not in a rush, but do our liNes have mounting blocks? I don't wanna b dicking around trying to source/fit blocks myself. Would prefer if the were included. I mean it's pretty shit if we r just paying for braided hose

[PM-R33]

Not sure about the mounting blocks, however I have been told they are easy to fit and don't require anything else to be purchased so we will see. I'm going to send off another email today to see if there are any more updates. Surely the f**king things have to be ready by now.
