Goodridge Brake Hose Set

[smiff 0]

I'm going to replace the standard brake hoses on my car, my mechanic said they've ballooned at both the top and bottom!

 

I've never had to replace them before, so I might as well go for a quality product. Can anyone please tell me what the product code is for Goodridge Hoses on a 1990 16V Corrado?

 

Oh, I have Mark4 rear calipers, will this effect what I buy?

 

Many thanks

You will need to buy the rear mk2 to mk4 conversion hoses and then you'll need half the front set... maybe speak to C&R or Stealth Racing who may be prepared to break a set up for you....

Actually, my MOT warned on brake hoses the other week and I was thinking of getting some Goodridge ones for the VR too. AFAIK I have standard late VR rear brake calipers, so can I just go buy a Golf iii GTi set?

dr_mat, nope, you need a Corrado set as the MKIII front and axle hoses will be different lengths from those you need... ;)

 

IIRC G-Man can get these pipes made up at a reasonable cost... GSF also sells 'em and Awesome always seem to have 'em in stock when you REALLY need 'em urgently... (don't ask, long story! :roll: )

I bought a set for my Golf G60 off the shelf, 6 line set too. Think I got them from C&R but cant really remember. I think Andy (20vturbo) recommended a place to me.

Yeah, looks like C+R sell 'em. I assume Stealth can get hold of 'em too tho..

Acquiring the correct Goodridge hoses for my Storm VR6 was not straightforward - there are different hose ends available for this model.

My local garage man refused to fit the first set I was sent on the grounds of safety. Tread warily.
