    I'm in the same boat lad I'm fitting my hydro the weekend too,

    The master cylinder is fed into the hydro then back to the rear brakes
    that's the part I don't really get either
    I bought a handbrake kit in murray motorsport but the lines are only like 1 meter each, doesn't look to be enough the lad in murrays said it's standard
    Also I didn't get a T peice ???

    Help please someone

    Just disconnect the brake line that goes to the rear of the car from the master cylinder and put one of your lines in there,that line is your feed to the REAR connection of the hydro.then the other line goes from the front of the hydro to the rear of the car.you don't need a t-piece as there is already one on the rear of the car.just bleed it out then.I find that the best way is to not touch the wand and just bleed it out with the pedal but everyone has their own opinion on this

    If you think you can,or you think you can't,your probably right!

    So If i do that maybe the short pipes would do
    Does that mean the foot pedal will only operate the front brakes and hydro for the rear?

    you'll still have your rears on the pedal,its just diverted through the handbrake

    Hydro's are grand and shouldn't coz problem. I haven't had any problem when I fitted but other people have. I will put pictures up of the perfect mounting brackets, strong as fook and super tidy and best of all they only coz €2 a piece and you only need 2 of em, shiny too!!!!!

    Straight from the master cylinder to the hydro then just run from the Hydro and tap into the t at the back - a good bleed and you should be in action.........
