Right, now we have more than 5, what are people's feelings about holding on for 10 to get more discount?

Sorry Spike,
Had a bit of a hectic weekend.
Just spoken to Alley Motorsport who confirm that the 307 callipers are the same as the 180's so the hoses will fit

My mate owns a company called High Octane JDM, specialises in Honda Civics, but he is a HEL dealer. He think's he can do this group buy cheaper. He is out in his wagon now but he is going to crunch some numbers and get back to be if anyone is interested?

I'd give HEL a miss if I were you. Widespread failures;
| PoT wrote: |
This was bought to my attention by my customer when he went for a MOT test.
My customer drives an Accord Type R. I fitted a set of HEL braided brake lines to his car less than 11 months/10,000 mile ago.
During the MOT test visual inspection, the MOT tester points out that his brake lines are cracking, then it went onto the brake roller test, when maximum brake pressure as applied, one of the brake lines burst and squirted brake fluid all over the inside of the wheel. Instant failure.
The old brake lines were refitted to get the car through the MOT.
This is when i got the phone call about the situation.
I went to check out the brake lines, and whilst i was there, i thought it would be a good idea to check over 2 other cars that i fitted HEL braided lines to.
heres the pics of the offending items on the ATR.
The 2 other cars were: Accord Type R and Integra Type R.
The ATR had the HEL brake lines fitted less than 9 months ago, with less than 6000 miles on them,
The ITR had the HEL brake lines fitted less than 6 months ago, with less than 6000 miles on them.
BOTH of them showed signs of cracking/splitting.
The ATR had 1 brake line (OSF) which was cracking in the same place as the ATR which failed on the mot.
the ITR had started cracking on both front brake lines where the brake line support bolts to the suspension.
pics of the 2nd ATR brake lines
offside front brake line
Now i dont use these lines, but if any of you do id have a quick check.
6 members have all started posting pics of there's which have all done the same thing.
Fail thread? Maybe. |

eeek!
Not what you expect from brake hoses - especially after 9 months.
Will photograph my Goodridge hoses when I get chance (fitted 25th Oct 2009) for comparison purposes.
