new parts

Post by robz »

Just taken the GT off the road 2day, so its now in the garage waiting for project 2006 2 start. Going 2 renew as much as possible, so was just wondering if any1 knows/thinks its worthwhile 2 renew the struts & if so where would i get some?

also wondered if any1 knows where i can get some braided brake hoses 4my G40 setup?

cheers Robz

Im still stopping 8) :lol:

Have heard of a set exploding under full braking on another G, but must have been an isolated incident as i've had no problems whatsoever with mine (touch wood)

Pitstop ones are excellent. I can also recommend using Motul brake fluid. :D
