what goodrige hose kit with sunny gtir calipers?

[Sunburn]

I want to replace the micra calipers with the ones of the sunny gtir (obviously with new discs and pads)

I also want to install Goodrige braided hose kit, but which one i have to buy? the one for micra or the one for sunny gtir? what is the difference between them? only the lenght of the hose or other?


other question: looking on ebay, I've seen that Goodrige produces different type of kits:
"braided"
"stainless"
"zinc"

the difference of price is high, are they all good?

thanks in advance for your attention!

one for micra. sunny might have a different hose length.

all brake hoses are braided sleeved in a way, performance kits just replace the braided fabric reinforced rubber hose with a stainless braid thats thinner n maybe stronger against bulging

stainless fittings obviously resists corrosion better.

i'm using HEL hose kit from hose solutions cos they were the only ones that do kits for micras with rear ABS discs.

I've got HEL ones as well. Go for stainless for durability .

Thanks guys for the quick answers!

anyway I only need the front ones, cuz my micra does not have rear discs and abs

If you do the front you may as well do the back even if you've only got drums

You should get front and backs in the pack . Got Goodridge ones on mine.

do the whole system cos no point in having 1/2 spongy rubber hose and 1/2 stainless hose

didn't understand that the kit is for front and rear :doh:

so i can choose between

Anyway in this goodridge offers they do not specify what kind of rear

 

[solarice]

I'd suspect they'll be for rear drums (going from pollyp's post).

They offered rear ones for mine as well and it has drums. The pipe into the cylinder is solid but there are two loops of rubber pipe right under the car. I didn't bother and just did the fronts .
