last week i was re conditioning the radius arms and rear brakes on the mini

the flexis were cracked, and the std steel pipe from flexi to drum was well past its best, so being a lazy crunt (and in a rush as the car was stranded on a mates ramp), whilst ordering new flexis from minispares, i ordered some pre cut copper hoses:

anyway, these arrived:



so thats a tenner down the drain then

ended up taking the arms back to mine and making up my own:



Gavin, Im sorry to be constantly bitching mate, but wtf is going on round there? Can you kick someones arse please?

You can probably see that over the years ive spent thousands with you guys, but I really cant see me using minispares again unless im mega desperate, its just too depressing


serves me right for being a lazy tw@t i guess

It says one male and one female end in the description - obviously not what you got - but also it says copper.....

I would use kunifer, not copper, especially in a potential high fatigue area (from vibration) like the moving part of the suspension.

Schrödinger's cat - so which one am I ???

I bet my first wank came quicker than your first mini turbo


These new modern turbos with their quick spool up time, would make the competition harder.
