December 16, 2009

Well, a few updates I guess.

Got my brake lines installed and also removed the charcoal canister. Cleans everything up a whole lot.

The brake lines are from Maruha purchased from Chikaramotorsports. I took advantage of the sale and picked them up to complete my stainless line collection lol. One of the reasons why I bought them was because of the super high quality, and also the flexibility in the lines.

Demo:


I decided to clean up the engine bay a bit.. delete the charcoal canister to make some room. Also its not exactly necessary so I thought, why the hell not.

On with pictures:



Its not missing some black canister and a picture showing how the lines are now looped.




Maruha Brake Lines... 18,000 yen!



Check out the quality though, the machining marks are soooo nice. I almost didnt want to install them.




This is the rear passenger side brake line. This peice goes to the cube. Again... so nice. On the right is a view showing the O-ring and flexible joint.




Comparion of OEM vs. Maruha.





I think you can now see the difference in quality.
