Goodridge Braided Brake Lines at JXL Performance

With a motorsport pedigree that stretches from Formula 1 to the World Rally Championship, Goodridge is the undisputed global pioneer in high performance fluid transfer systems. When upgrading a car for fast road driving or dedicated track use, enthusiasts often spend thousands on big brake kits and aggressive friction materials while completely overlooking the plumbing that ties it all together. Upgrading to Goodridge braided brake lines is the single most effective way to eliminate a spongy brake pedal and drastically improve braking confidence, making it an absolutely essential modification for any performance vehicle.

Eliminating Volumetric Expansion with Stainless Steel

Standard factory brake lines are manufactured from flexible rubber. Over time, and especially under the extreme heat and hydraulic pressure generated during heavy braking, these rubber hoses physically bulge and expand outward. This phenomenon, known as volumetric expansion, absorbs the hydraulic force intended for your brake calipers, resulting in a soft, vague, and terrifying brake pedal right when you need it most.

Goodridge completely cures this issue by utilizing a highly chemical resistant PTFE inner core wrapped tightly in a premium stainless steel braided mesh. This heavy duty construction completely prevents the hose from expanding under pressure, ensuring that one hundred percent of your master cylinder force is transmitted directly to the brake pads. Finished with a durable clear or colored PVC outer jacket to protect against abrasion and road debris, Goodridge lines provide a rock solid pedal feel that remains perfectly consistent lap after lap.

The Perfect Finishing Touch for All Platforms

Because of the dramatic improvement in pedal feel, Goodridge braided lines are an incredibly popular upgrade across every single vehicle platform we cater to. Whether you are dialing in the braking system on a lightweight Mk7 or Mk8 Ford Fiesta ST, hauling down a heavy B58 powered BMW M140i or S55 equipped F80 M3, or extracting maximum track performance from a Honda Civic Type R FK8, Goodridge lines are a mandatory bolt on upgrade. They are equally critical for the VAG market, providing the exact hydraulic rigidity required to maximize the stopping power of heavy all wheel drive platforms like the EA888.3 powered VW Golf Mk7 R and Audi S3.
