personally, i think the brake hoses will be last thing they look at if i get pulled over.

but no point taking a risk.

Im withdrawing my interest in this group buy. Just picked up a set of STI lines.

Not sure on the whole ADR thing, but the STI ones were coated and the ends are also covered in a rubber boot.
Parting out....

ADR approved brake lines need the ends to be teflon coated, as opposed to just metal braided.

Hey mate - I checked this out. They're simply not worth it new, even with the discount that I can get......... Yikes! Get yourself some Goodridge lines instead. I bought a set and they are the goods. :wink:

I have a set here on my bench just waiting for my brembo's :)

Part number on them is 2655066000

But there are surely cheaper options out there. Subaru RRP these at something like $770 :shock: :shock: :shock:

Steve, have you fitted them with your stock brake setup? I'm curious to know how much difference braided lines make on the stock brakes.
