Howdy! Took some time today to install the G60 setup on my 90q20v to replace the dinky 256mm G54 single piston setup. I ran into some brake line length issues, the strut to caliper line was too short, my 90q20v has the two piece lines (body to strut and strut to caliper) and 20v.org stated these lines would be fine for the G60 upgrade, today I found otherwise. The strut to caliper line was too short. Anyone else run into any problems are have luck with the stock lines?

I used some extra 80 lines and tied them up to make sure they did not rub against anything, too long.

Thanks!

Howdy! Just imagine a brake line that is too short. The later 90q20v models had a two flex line setup up front, one line from the body to the strut, a metal crossover pipe, and a line from the strut to the caliper. 20v.org states those with the two lines stock, my 90q20v included, should no need new lines, though the second line from the strut to the caliper was way too short in my installation. I am going to measure those lines I removed and see if they match up to the 165mm length as listed by Audi, possibly these lines were replacement and a different size, they appear stock. I do need to find a decent sized line to replace the 80 lines, they are too long and I needed to zip them to the strut to stay away from the tire, not a permanent solution, I'd prefer to find out what the deal is because later model 90q20v's used G60's stock and these lines are what they use, can't see why mine differed so much.

It could be that somebody was messing with them before you

The G60's are the same as used on the CQ right?..are they really that much better thank stock 90's?
