    Yes, I believe that's what they're called.

    BMRS ProGold, they're supposed to be quite good.

    They look good, are they expensive? I've used mostly secondhand Goodridge and Earls over the years in my race cars, but that means I always have a mix and match of styles and colours on my hoses and unions.

    Colin those are what my car is done in. Not horrendously expensive and great quality. Most importantly from your perspective they and the hose are as light as a feather.

    I used Mitch are ProLine Motorsport and recommended him to House, his work is as good as it gets.

    All fittings are swaged, I’ll email you some pics it’s impossible to upload them here.

    Perfect, thanks.

    And even better they’re close to East Grinstead, somewhere I’m regularly at for my work.

    House,

    i haven’t had time to trawl way back into your build thread, so apologies if you’ve already covered this.

    Are you using Ben’s rose jointed front suspension kit? And if so do you have any photos of it fitted, especially in relation to gearbox clearance (ideally when the car was SCCR, not sequential).

    Thanks.

    Colin

    Colin, myself and House fitted those kits at the same time. If there's anything inparticular my cars on axle stands currently (what's new) so could get clearance measurements/photos against an F20.

    What Iain said!!! He'll hook you up with any pics mate.

    I don't remember there being anything of concern with the suspension kit clearing boxes and such.

    Aside from adding loads of castor puts the front wheel onto and rubbing the front wing!!! Craig had to cut his front wings out to give clearance!!
