go to your local brake shop, they will be able to make them onsite to suit whatever length you want. Full ADR approved etc etc.

those guys that said pirtek , i know they now do ADR approved braided brake lines (have done for a year or so) , there are cheaper options but in my opinion you cant go past them for quality and customer service (at least at the store i dealt with)

I just went to my local brake mechanic and as already mentioned they just did them up on the spot to suit the lift and flex I had. Around the $200 mark I think for all four.

Pirtek have done ADR braided lines for many years- at least in Melbourne.

As an aside, if you are in Melbourne, the airport west pirtek store is awesome. I used to go to Campbellfield, but it went way downhill when their guru Paul left.

I have found pirtek to be alot more expensive than a few other non-franchise shops around here.

But im in Bisbane so I cant offer any alternatives in vic I'm afraid.

not just brake lines but many a thing ive gone to pirtek for (at springwood) and they always have had a solution (they call themselves the fluid solution specialists) they have always been really helpful no matter what the situation and ive gone in there with some weird ones . sean at the counter is a really nice bloke and knows his shit. that and they actually pressure test everything , which a brake shop wont , and its all the highest quality shit you can get.... id rather pay decent money for good service and quality components rather than a few bucks less for shitty components and service untested..
