Hey thanks for the reply, but I think you have me misunderstood. I wasn't planning to reuse the nuts (LOL!) I was going to use the stock hardline from the 300zx in place of mine. Shown on the bottom

P.S. 10mm flare wrench is your friend

You're tellin me man, every problem I try to solve brings 5 more. I will be buying that hardline though, just so I can HAZ OEM JDM FOGLIGHTZZZZZ





So, I went out and bought this



Now I have 2 "Rounded rear NUTS" (Hardy Har Har Herpaderp



But I managed to disconnect them here without any issue.



I don't understand how the came off so easy at the "splitter" but whatever. New stock lines should fix everything.


My original idea was to reuse the z32 line but there was a huge flaw with that idea. The stuff does actually screw in properly so NYAH





On a side note, I think I have 2 Drivers side z32 brakes




In the morning I plan on calling to check stock on factory hardlines. Thanks for the assistance guys, it's much appreciated.
