nidgep Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Hi About to rebuild the front calipers on my SG9 Forester XT and would like to replace the flexible brake hoses (all aroud) at the same time, I've read many times that the brake pedal feel is improved by fitting stainless steel braided hoses. From your experiences (taking into account fitment, length, quality etc.), can anyone recommend a manufacturer (Hel, Goodridge etc.). Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Hel and Goodridge are both reputable brands - have used HEL recently as they have been slightly cheaper than the Goodridge option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nidgep Posted February 10, 2020 Author Share Posted February 10, 2020 Thanks for the reply @Jay762 Did they actually fit ok in terms of OEM locations? The chap who bought the ones linked to above mentions that the rear are a poor fit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 I had no issues with rears on my STI or the clutch cylinder link I had off them, I have some photos somewhere I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siluro Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 I used HEL and they are not an issue to fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
