Brake Lines for GT (not GTS)

As stated.

I have the equivalent of the GT with 16 inch wheels and smaller brakes. I have just ordered some new pads and fluid and wanted to add some stainless lines for increased feel but everything on sale over in the US of A is made for the GTS model.

Could anyone please confirm if the brake lines are interchangeable?

Thanks in advance.
Steve

Actually, that's not correct. The GT and GTS have different fittings.
Though you can probably get away with GTS lines on a GT.

Oops...so different part numbers? Which fittings are you referring to?

The ones onto the calipers have different angles. Maybe just the back (I'm old and my memory is fading) because they've got different calipers.

Ah...ok so the banjo is slightly different. I haven't checked mine (GT) but i know the GTS rear banjo has a 90 degree angle. Fronts are identical.
