Goodridge Stainless Brake lines for 1990 1.8 16V

Hey

 

 

I'm confused, which goodridge hose kit do I buy - 1990 or 1990 - 1992? What are the differences?

 

 

Cheers

The front brake line locations were different... have a look at the pics on the VW spares site for details...

 

Rears are the same on all cars or all years and the mids too apart from the VR6 ones.

I take it I need the shorter ones then??

Hello,

 

 

I'm now have a pair of G60 calipers meaning I will be upgrading to 280mms. What Goodridge kit will suit my 1990 16v with these new calipers.

 

 

Thanks

I think it depends on your chassis number but I used Goodridge part No. SVW1010-6P on my 1990 16v.

Give C&R a ring with your chassis number in hand, as they know their stuff and will sort you out no problems.

Thanks,

 

 

I just wanted to confirm that the actual fitting on the lines compatible with the G60 Calipers.

The Goodridge lines connect onto the short "S" shaped copper hard line the same way as they do on the std 16v callipers, and the G60 callipers use the same union on the hard line as the std callipers.

The hard lines are a bugger to remove without damaging though, so be prepared to us plenty of WD40/Plus gas and even then you might wreck them. I had to make new ones for 2 out of the 4 as I was doing brakes all round, and also on of the main hard lines going to the master. :epicfail:
