Okay I just finished putting in the lines...literally I just washed my hands. And it was bad. Not the installation, that was easy I even took pictures to submit for a how to thread. I'm not a moron I know I did it right even though it was my first time. Problem was when it was time to bleed the lines and I had done all that work putting them on, the things ******* LEAKED AT EVERY CORNER!!!! I am ******* pissed. Let me tell you what it was it is where the braided line and the line from the master cylinder meet. The problem is that the goodridge line uses a different sealing mechanism than the protege hard line.
Protege Hard line-the end of the piping is flanged so when the hard line is pressed against the inside of the brake line it seals by the flange becoming wedged in between the male end(hardline) and the female end(brake line). This is how it is supposed to work, kind of like a water hose.
How does the goodridge line work? beats the **** out of me I tightened it all the way to the point of the male end bolt almost stripping and there was still about half a meter of play on the hardline.
And what does this mean when you put a little pressure on it to bleed the lines four huge ******* puddles near each tire all at the same place. All I have to say is **** THAT. I'm calling their asses tomorrow. This was only supposed to be a two hour job. Damn Brits. :wtf: :mad: :'(
