would you guys recommend custom frabricating new hard lines? i want to move mine away from the firewall so i can get a triagular 3 point fstb. possilby shorten some lines and instead of rebending the clutch hardline, create a shorter and cleaner one after i remove the clutch dampening box.
where do you guys suggest getting hardlines at? do you think i can safely do it w/o loss of function or making it worst off the than stock.

well you can, i dont know why you would want too, the stock lines work fine, the bends, and twists are there for a reason.
the BIG proplem is finding metric hardlines to bend, i looked and looked and i couldnt find any.

yeah you can
i know Napa auto parts store carry them
they are sold STRAIGHT so you have to bend them to what you want. cost. no idea. call around. tell them you need hardlines (like for brakes) and they'll know or not.
check your SMALLERauto parts stores first, they would probblay be more likely to carry them (and support your local/small businesses at the same time-backbone of a community)
good luck!
also make sure you have the proper hardline bending tools! don't 1/2 a$$ it!
