Brake Lines:
You need to use the banjo style lines
like OEM calipers
since the Brembors we've seen don't have the 'nipple' in the hole the z32 caliper has
also quote from another post:
Quote:
one thing we noticed while doing all this:
notice how the calipers have two different sized pistons?
On the EVO one, which installs in a similar fashion to our calipers,
the rotor meets the smaller piston as the car goes forward
the STi caliper, on the other hand, mounts below the rotor on Subbies
and in THAT configuration, again, the smallerr piston meets the rotor
as the car goes forward
Now if we install the STi caliper on our cars with the bleeders on the top part, the rotor turns towards the
larger piston first as the car goes forward.
Now we don't know if people have noticed this or whether it matters
but we're thinking of switching the bleeders to the opposite side of the caliper
so that the rotor spins into the smaller piston just like on the EVO caliper.
It's just going to make routing the brake line a little more difficult but we
think this is the right way to go with STi calipers.

From talking with various people, this is to dissipate break load for even pad wear
you could leave the caliper alone buy you may end up with uneven pad wear
