I am after a set of braided brake lines for my R33 gtst. Can get the Nismo set delivered for about $280 which isn't too bad. But the question is, are they legal?? From the small pic I can not tell wether there is a rubber boot or whatever you need to meet the adr requirements. But because they are Nissan products does that make them legal cause they are factory produced??

Cheers

Nismo is not the same as Nissan.

and I believe they are NOT adr approved and thus not legal.

i had a set of braided lines made up by a hose mob, and they have the lines stamped to ensure it complies with adr.

Whoops, posted the wrong link. Try this one:

What makes Maltech Ultimate Brake Hoses Street Legal? 

After many years of development and testing, the BrakeQuip style of stainless braided brake hose became the first to successfully pass the ADR testing here in Australia. On completion of the testing the hoses were issued a Component Registration Number CRN 30886 by the Department of Transport and Regional Services These numbers can be seen on the insert on both ends of every hose we produce.

Maltech's use of the BrakeQuip brake hose manufacturing system has allowed them to become an Authorised Manufacturer of BrakeQuip Stainless Steel Braided Brake Hoses.

yes but the nismo lines are completely covered so they will not rub on any other lines, or metal parts. it also makes them less likely to fail as over time uncovered braided lines get small bits of dirt etc ground in through the gaps in the braid, it then can rub away at the line.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
