People have said a few times on here that its a straight swap for the standard caliper and disk, so that would mean you can use the standard hoses, but if you're looking to upgrade Kam Racing have good ones in stock here http://www.kamracing.co.uk/citroen-saxo-1/brakes-23/brake-hoses-452/

you can use standard saxo hoses but id get braided lines to help pedal travel to.

The distance that you have to push the brake pedal before achieving optimum braking.
this increases when you fit bigger calipers.
i have 283's from a gti180 and there is still some with braided lines but its fine really tbh
a bigger master cylinder will help to also from the gti-6 for your vts
