To be legal in Queensland, aftermarket brake lines must have an Australian certification stamp on them. I run Lowrange lines without drama and I'm sure the ones you linked to would be fine too, just not legal for road use. |

Hyundai Excel lines also fit apparently, and are longer than stock. |

I have the same set coming in have a few mates in the US that run them on heeps and yotas and say they are good lines, put it this way they will be better than stock, and if you have to you can get them passed, just need it to get cert here. |

If you have an accident due to brake failure, and don't have ADR lines, well, you're fucked then, aren't you? |

i do have adr approved lines, genuine hyundai, and i agree that dodgy lines are not the way to go. but seriously. some of the bad mods that people are doing on here and no one says boo. and yet have a whine over the difference between DOT and adr lines. |

I always suggest to people to rethink when I think they are doing something dengerous or stupid with their cars on here... I'm not saying follow the law to the letter, just that there are places where a little more care and $$$ may be a good idea. |

Goodrige braided lines are approved by QLD DOT for fitment to vehicles, I would assume in the last few years other brands have been accepted as well though I also dont know why you would get lines from teh US when every corner store here will sell you something cheaper and you can be a tight ass, I upgraded to wagon brakes for cheap as!!! |
