MarkGolf 6 Posted November 15, 2004 Report Share Posted November 15, 2004 I ain't got a clue about the name, but you've got LATE VR6 brakes being 288's rather than the early 280's which are just a screw in union thing...I think that leaves Banjo being your fitment...Its a round thing.. (lol, my lack of technical terminology is showing!)Someone here will tell you straight, but the kit SHOULD be listed as 'LATE VR6'...I originally bought the LATE VR6 kit and these had weird round 'banjo' things at the end which attached to the caliper..I had to go back and get the early normal ones..German and Swedish I found to be the cheapest place...Actually, if you look in this months PVW on page 21, you'll see there is a little advert, they are offering 20% discount on goodridge hoses for a limited period.. Says call Goodridge on 01392369090Hope that all helps..lol[ Edited Mon Nov 15 2004, 07:26PM ] Link to post Share on other sites

Slim 0 Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 What I'd do is tell the guys where to shove their hoses and go to a more reputable company that will offer a refund if you order the wrong ones, and will likely offer you some helpful advice too. Link to post Share on other sites
