Resolved 2G GSX brakes on 1G

[Djsniperwolf]

simple title. I have done this swap before, but the previous swapped involved banjo bolts so it was a painless swap.

Anyways, I picked up a set of calipers from a 2G a couple of years ago and noticed that they were not the banjo bolt style calipers. The seller did include brake lines.

My question is, will the 2G brake lines tie into the brake lines on my 1G? I am hoping to avoid having to find a set of custom lines. Thanks!

when i went through the front caliper ordeal i found that the 1g was not a banjo style caliper while the 2g was. i ended up making my own lines from some russel fittings and made it all work. but i do believe you can go to jnz tuning and they have options on their brake line kits where you choose either banjo or flare fitting.

Yes JNZ still has the stainless steel brake lines with the fitting option you are looking for.

Sounds backwards. The standard brakes lines for 1G thread into the calipers, banjo bolts are used on some (all?) 2G calipers.

Yeah I had it backwards, but I see what needs to be done. Thanks for the help.
