I'm assuming this isnt a ka/sr high pressure hose/banjo bolt is it? You can see it goes down curves and then its bent to shit (in front of the sway bar) looping back to the steering rack. I want to replace this with an ISIS steel braided high pressure line I bought awhile back however from the pics I've seen, the braided line bolts into the banjo bolt (not replacing it) which isnt similar to the one I have. Anyone have input on what I have here or what I need in order to run the new line?

Looks like a sohc line, and that you're missing the stock fitting piece that bolts there.

Okay, that makes sense. I'll see if I can locate one. If I can't, a hydraulics shop should be able to make me up something right?

You need the connector from a non-hicas DOHC pump if you want to use the braided line. I know someone who just went through this exact situation.
