Leon Cupra R Calipers + Braided lines.

[CJRamze]

Hi Guys,
I've had the run around for the LCR in regards to braided lines.
Had I had any sense I would of gone for Bills but I found HEL did a kit fronts and backs for my car for less money. Full stainless.

I've been sent two kits from two separate distrobuters and both kits have been wrong.
My mechanic tells me the kit I have has Banjo ends (I assume from the name its the circular end) and it should be threaded to fit the brembo's.

Is that correct? Does anyone have pics of what they should look like.

And more importantly are these brembos used on any other cars so that I can say "The same fitment as the porsche..... <Model Here>"

Thanks.

Chris.

The same Brembo's are used on the Mk1 Focus RS IIRC. No info on the other stuff other than I was led to believe the LCR had Braided lines (all be it encapsulated in black rubber)

Dont bother with braided rears as they are already braded, but have a black plastic cover, you can cut it of to reveal the ss braiding.....like i did.

The new one fitted

The Old one with the plastic peeled back revealing the braid.

are the fronts braided phill ?

Sort of, but not stainles they are a sort of fibre so you cant strip the covering.
