old hoses can flex under pressure, even more so with rubber hoses. the braided type will improve the brake feel lots

and it will be 6 line kit, but if your fitting rear mk4 calipers call some suppliers and see if they will do a mk3 front, mk4 rear kit (they do them for the mk2's but I can't find a listing for the mk3)

Complete 6 line kits with the mk4 rear caliper conversion hoses are definitely available from Goodridge although I've not seen many stockists listing them. I do remember them been bloody expensive as a full off the shelf option though hence i purchased my rears from eBay separately.

Speaking to that guy who does the mk3 to mk4 convo and he said 70 for all 6 lines. So just waiting on him to reply back and see where we go from there.
Will update my project (done a few bits but no chance to update it)

P.s where the feck is the part numbers on the calipers? I cant seem to find them.

That's a decent price tbh considering the fact im pretty sure the Goodridge package was almost £120!
