Can anyone help me please ?
I've been searching about but can't seem to find anywhere I can hold of the brake line adapter needed to fit RX7 calipers to the standard E30 brake line.
the adapter needed is :
M10 male inverted flare to M10 female bubble flare
Does anybody know where I can get hold of them ?
Thanks
James

Would it not be simpler just to get another brake pipe made up with the correct flares?

Yeh ive done alot of that and haven't come up with anything in the UK. I think making up a brake pipe will be the only option.
Thanks

There are a few places that can make up lines for you. Think Auto are great. Also try the likes of Merlin Motorsport at Castle Combe. Earls Performance at Silverstone to name a couple.

I think it may no longer be a problem because as I noticed that the Hel brake lines I have seem to use a universal flare on them and are the same thread. I checked the mating between the brake line and calliper by putting black marker around the concave part of the flare and winding it into the calliper. All of the black marker rubbed off the flare so it must be sealing...
