Yeah my mpp lines were a bit tight also had to rotate it to fit
That’s good to know, since ordering lines and pads is next on the list for me. My calipers are here, though! Just need a car to put them on…

Took photos this morning of the brake lines.
First is full stretch of the line with full lock on steering wheel. Second is full slack by turning the steering wheel full lock in other direction.
Without me tying the lines this way, I could get the guide tab mounted into the knuckle, but it's too taught and I wasn't comfortable with that strain on the lines.
So, another 2 to 3 inches would've been perfect.

Wow, that's some serious customization. Now just need someone to get some stock lines in their hand to spec them out... Thank you!You can get some of the best lines custom made by Spiegler:

Working with Essex now to see if they can build us a proper brake line with a 90 degree banjo fitting on the caliper side.
I’ll report back shortly.

I’ll be sure to weigh all stock Model 3 Performance components and get some brake line measurements.
C7Z calipers arrive to the shop on Tuesday and I’ll bet GiroDisc ships soon. FYI: Summit Racing currently has the C7Z passenger caliper on clearance and comes out to about $8 more for the pair than the ATS-V SKU. I have G-LOC R12 in production as well. Stoked to see if these calipers fit under 18” EC-7 but they look absolutely massive in photos.
I expect to have an extra full kit ready to go with the calipers drilled out and time-serted for the stock M12 caliper bolts if anyone wants to hit the easy button.

These are MPP lines, and you are showing you aren’t having issues with stretch?

It’s pretty tight but had to angle them certain ways but no stretching issue is the boot doesn’t allow for much rotation.

I was worried the tension would increase fatigue on the banjos. Decided to play it safe and zip tie it.

What does yours look like at full lock/tension? When I had my tab mounted there was definite strain on the banjo no matter how I oriented it (flipped and all that).
