Does anyone know the best and cheapest place to find hel braided brake hoses and Hawk HP+ pads please chaps. Trawling the bloody internet doing my nut in. Found Hel uk for the lines, can they be had cheaper?

Chris, what's wrong with goodridge? Or have we already had this debate?

[Thebusofwoe]

Nothing!! Ok, or Goodrich . . . I know the price difference isn't much, if any at all. No don't think we have pal.

Do braided lines make any difference? :s

[Thebusofwoe]

Yes massive. Especially as I'm running mine as a dedicated track car. Brakes are the most important part of anything fast

[MaccaIRL]

Truee, but surely .. well.. pipe is pipe haha

I dont get why braided is so much better...
Cooling maybe?

[mercutio]

nope its stronger so less flex in the pipe when you press the pedal means you get more feel from the brakes

[prelude91]

They make a big diff. especially on a motorcycle. Try Hampshire Hose Crosshouse Ind. Est. Southampton Ask for Scott Broomfield, I think he's still there. I'll look up exact address if you need it.

[MaccaIRL]

Big job tho to do brake lines i thought

Especially for some extra feel and im guessing minor increased brake response

Look on YouTube hel do tests between stock and braided. The stoping distance is also decreased. Not a big job no, just req bleeding the brakes again after fitting.
