Hosetechnik Toyota GT86 / Subaru BRZ performance brake hoses

Forge Motorsport’s Hosetechnik division has released a range of ultra-high performance brake hoses for the recently released Toyota GT86 and Subaru BRZ RWD Coupe.

With the ethos of the new ‘Toyobaru’ very much about handling finesse rather than outright power, many enthusiasts are already looking for subtle, warranty and insurance friendly mods that will accentuate and improve what’s already there. The Hosetechnik lines, with their hand-finished, frictionless braided stainless steel bodies and custom-machined stainless end fittings certainly fall into that category.

Forge’s unique production process combined with its exemplary levels of quality control and inspection mean that every single hose meets or exceeds all current FMV. ADR, LTSA, DOT and TUV legislation, making these upgrades totally legal in any market globally.

The original lines don’t offer the same pedal feel and confidence-inspiring feel as the Hosetechnik parts, due to their old-fashioned rubber-wall construction. Under load, and particularly after a few years and miles of use, the walls of the factory-style brake hose can ‘bellow’, losing efficiency and wasting some of the effort between pedal and pad.

All models and variants are catered for, but if your road or track car has a bespoke brake package, Hosetechnik’s in house production facility in Gloucestershire, UK can create virtually anything in just a day or two, either from a good photo or drawing, or by patterning the original parts. Any rubber hoses can be quickly and easily copied and remade into shiny new braided Hosetechnik hoses, carrying a lifetime guarantee.

The Hosetechnik range draws heavily from Forge’s thirty years of engineering excellence and these new hoses lead the market in terms of their specification. The lines themselves are No less than 12 hard-wearing 95PVC sleeve colours available to protect against dirt and water ingress… and best of all, you can actually ring up and speak to the technician who is building your hoses, whilst your order is pending.

More details can be found at hosetechnik.com. Prices start at £60.35 + VAT for a four line set.
