Thanks heres more...

Final version of brakelines.. this is 2nd version overall, i like how they are now, and best of all both front lines are 1 piece lines.

You don't run a linelock?

You don't run a linelock?

Maybe on rear.. would be ok to run linelock on rear with solenoid, i could lock it either in brake or brakeless mode. for burnouts and for keeping the car still.. will see in future.. and if i do, i will hide it somewhere in rear where no one can see it and never talk about it again

[Fuzis]

Sooo clean work Nice!

[Exami]

Rear brakeline..
Mockup.


DONE!



Other than that it was crap of a day..

came to garage it was like this:

but driveable on big roads..

when i was leaving ...


So ~10 to 15cm of snow.. so i had to take be bmw on the back to get home.. and what was nice it has 3.0 turbo diesel engine and 4wd and winter tyres.. but the issue it wont blow any hot / warm air at all!!! so heater control valve stuck propably. or something like that.. was a cold ride home.. altho i got home safely.

[herrakani]

Seems to depend much on the spot you are, literally no snow on Lauttasaari when I left work but 10cm at home. Disgusting. I still got some work left on my dd before I can start grinding the M5.

difficult choice

hot and sketchy

or cold and safe

Are you going to run it this year?

Actually no, it was beyond sketchy and i found out about 5km out of garage that it wont have any heat inside. but i foundout today the issue its the "heater control valve" or what controls it. once i unplug that... heat.. so works for now.

Hope so. Depends on the monies..

[Exami]
