Z32 BMC flare fitting
 
Hi there, I'm doing the z32 BMC on my s13 with z32 brakes, but I'm not sure on where to get the middle flare fitting. Does anyone know? I already tried cutting them out of my stock one and it didn't work. Thanks!

I actually stick a hex key into the fitting and wiggle it out.

I'm going through the same swap as you right now, when you say that you tried cutting out the old one, but it did not work, what do you mean?

When I was cutting it the Dremel went too far and nicked the fitting causing it to not create a proper seal

Ah, a better way would be to use the dremel to cut access behind the fitting and then use a punch or drill bit to hammer it out

Right, realize that now lol. Do you know of anywhere you can buy those fittings?

No, looked long and hard, your old BMC should have 3. If not, like I said I'm going through the same thing, I can send you one once I get mine out.

You'd be a life saver man. I'll float you a few bucks if you could mail me a few. Go ahead and shoot me a text at 206 566 9749. Thanks!

Grab a hex tool or "L" wrench that fits in the fitting whole and wiggle it out from your old BMC. There no need to use a Dremel.
