I'll be using a Tilton dual master cylinder setup for these and the 944T rears.

kiwivw, was wondering how did you hook up the front brake lines? I was working on mine and got three solutions:

1) find a invert metric to a bubble metric adaptor

2) use a intermediate metal brake line from the caliper to the rubber hose, that adapts the different flares

3) try to use a rubber brake line from a mazda then use a intermediate metal brake line from the mazda rubber hose to the master cylinder.

I couldn't find the brake line adaptor, I've been looking, cannot find one.

The problem I have with the second one is mounting a bracket to hold the metal line strudy. It's sort of tough not a lot of room there. I mean you want to keep the line clear from the suspension plus have enough slack for travel.

I think that leaves the third one, here I just gotta find a rubber brake hose that works. Figured the Rx7 was a good place to start, duh. But other than the earlier sliding caliper rubber hose the brake hoses are female/female.

So it brought up the question how did you do it?

Thanks
Rip
