maybe try a different material of pipe like kunifer
Thanks for the reply, I will look into that material

I have seen a few saxos with braided lines throughout so was thinking that could also be an option, but I guess it could get quite expensive.

I believe so. I didn't actually do it myself, one of my mechanics did it, hes been a mechanic for over 35 years so I don't think he would get it wrong twice.

I'm thinking that it could be a cheap copper pipe that may have been stretched when flared.

I was just concerned that there was a fault with my setup and it was building up too much pressure at the nearside rear
