Do I need 4 pot lines or 6 pot lines (brakes) ?

[ImysE30]

The rep was originally a 318i so am I right in assuming it would have had 4 pot brake lines fitted?

However, now I have E30 M3 suspension fitted (with ABS), do I still need to buy 4 pot brake lines?

Probably looking at getting some braided one's from Goodridge or similar.
TIA

4 line kit = No rear disk brakes
6 line kit = Rear disk brakes

Simples.

Imy, get a price from ECP via meatballs regarding some Goodridge lines

Thanks Kam

Will do Kedge, need to get some track rod ends too

Kit like this will fit fine:

Thats the kit ive got for mine, but did not pay that much !!!!!!

[ImysE30]

How much should I be paying?

Doesn't look like ECP do these kits for the M3

[Kedge]

What's different on the M3 kit to the standard kit?

Don't go on what their website says, they are able to do special orders.

[kam-325i]

you dont need M3 specific lines, just the E30 6 line kit.....

The goodridge 6 line kit with stainless fittings go for around £70-80

read the ad Imy = the Zinc plated fittings on this kit are sh1t and will tarnish very quickly.

You need to make sure you order the kit with Stainless fittings which is more expensive.

Matt at ECP sorted me out with the proper stainless kit last Year - about £85 IIRC.

I tried loads of places to get the price down - the cheaper places when you do a little digging are for the zinc plated rather than stainless fittings.

I bought them of some guy who had never used them. Cheap price and stainless fittings as well

Did a groupbuy last year may be worth a phone call for you?
