Is anyone interested in some of these hoses for their e90s? EDIT: THESE ARE NOW GOING TO BE 'HEL' KITS INSTEAD OF GOODRIDGE - same quality just different brand.

I've decided to tackle this head on myself now just to see how far I can get dealing direct with HEL (I might even try Goodridge too) Obviously the more people we get the better the price will be. I don't have an idea what the price will be until I present them with numbers.

What I need to know from EVERYONE is:

EXACT model of car (eg e90 320d ES, or e92 325i SE etc etc) and also your preferred colour of kit.

Having just spoken to HEL they have advised that some cars have a 4 line kit and some have 6 line kits - the example they gave me is that the 318d has a 6 line kit but the 320d has a 4 line kit (odd I know but that's how it is)

I'm going to start a new list below please find your username and copy and paste the list with your car model number (e90/1/2/3 AND spec ES, SE, M Sport) and preferred colour

1.Dino355 – e90 330i SE, preferred colour: Yellow Clear

I'm interested in a set. I'll reply on BMWowner.com when he puts a thread up.

[makkan00]

Sorry for noob question, but what sort of hoses are these?
Why we need to change it?
Sorry, I am missing all the background.
Can anybody point me in the right direction or post a link here?
Thanks.

[Dino355]

Braided hoses increase brake pedal feel and feedback. They also prevent the pedal going soft under repeated hard use as the standard rubber hoses heat up and expand reducing the pressure in the braking system. Braided hoses also look cool

I've used braided hoses on ALL of my performance cars over the years, then again I take my cars on track so for me this is an essential upgrade.

[Mike in Hampshire]

Yes, I'd definitely be in at that price, will await pm?
Mike.

[Dino355]

Will let you know Mike

There was a group buy over on BMWowner.com recently and they were half price at £45 a set. Username is Looney and he will be doing another one again soon and I wondered if anyone on here is interested?

If so please show your interest on this thread and then when he is ready I'll pm you contact details.

Cheers

Dino

I'm interested, please update when ready to move forward.

thanks

[Laney]

I'm in.

Cheers

[DarkAnt335i]

Defiantly interested @ that price

[RagingKileak]

Interested for 335i

Matt

[nicktyler]

I'm also in. It would be silly not to at that price. If your brakes need any other work these will hardly even add anything to the labour bill.

[AlanYoro35i]

Perfect timing!! I'm in for the e92 335i!!

[Dino355]

I've PM'd Looney on BMWowner.com to see when we can kick off the groupbuy. There are 10 of us now so that's a very good start

I'll PM you all individually when it's made official as well as updating this thread.

[parapaul]

I'm in for a set at that price too

[Danny.B.]

Ill take a set also 330d

[HeavyRightFoot]

Is this a big install job? Anyone know whats involved or likely costs?
If it's not massive, I'm in too.

[Mr Singh]

I'll take a set too. Not sure if it changes anything but I have a 330D with 335D front calipers.. I assume there not going to be terribly different!

[Kenchan218]

I have a 320i ATM is it worth to put in on my 320i?

but might change to a 325i e92 soon.
Should I get one? And can I change it out if I change car ? Will
It be a big job?

If not I defo want in

[Dino355]

This is not a big job guys.

I've always had mine done at the same time as pads and discs etc. You will also need to flush your brake fluid and replace with new fluid of course.

[shej]

im in too..
