Brake pipe routing diagram

[af1]

I promise I have searched. 



So, my 306 rallye has rapidly become a project  


I was wondering if anyone had a diagram for the brake pipe routing, or at least a picture of the underside of a 306 rally or gti with a load sensing valve?


I did try and copy from underneath my 306hdi but it is surprisingly sans load sensor!


Also if I was to put brembos on the front does the master cylinder need upgrading?

HDi (and any other ph3) uses the ABS system for electronic brakeforce distribution (EBD) so doesn't need a load valve.

I'm afraid I don't have a picture of one though!

A GTI (23mmIIRC) master cylinder wil be fine with Brembos

i saw a very similar diagram when we where in the dealers some time ago........the parts manager said that the diagrams can be misleading sometimes,  as the diagram suggests a flexi hose right next to the rear disc caliper, which would make sense as the caliper is a slide type......but our 306 estate phs 3 has no flexi right next to the caliper, but relies on the metal pipe length for caliper movement. He says that the diagram may suggest a flexi there but the pug part doesn't have one?

saw the same set up in a pic shown on here ( copper pipe coming from l/h/s rear caliper which seemed to "stick up" quite a lot on the curve from the caliper to the pipe going forward along the swing arm ) ...........from memory no one commented on the sticky uppy pipe or no flexi on that bit............

some beams have two flexis per side (ie on coming straight of the rear caliper), some don't ...

cool.....was wondering but all seems ok and no mention when mot'd.

Ah you legends! Thanks

That diagram is for a car with abs...

The flexi is usually between the beam mount and trailing arm fixing points, ie where it needs to move.
