I'm in the process of doing thos to my hatch and the studs where the fuel filter and stuff mount too got grinded flat and in your pics it looks like you did the seme how did you re mount the fuel filter onto the fire wall? Also. What would happen if I just ran the two fron breaks off the master? Run the one line for the fronts and put a splitter in and left the rears with nothing? I would cap the one line off the master and use the other for the fronts? Please help

yeah not a good idea to re-engineer your brakes. Not worth totaling your car cause it wouldn't stop.
I ran an inline fuel filter instead of the one on the firewall.

Buy new brake lines. Don't risk killing others or yourself.

Oh, buy a set of line wrenches too.

I got custom rear braided lines made now all my lines are braided and works out to be a similar price as buying pipe a bender pipe flaring kit and the copper pipe.

Still not fully installed but gives you an idea of where I ran them

Hey sorry for the late reply on this been real busy being a dad lol.

There is a UK based company called Hel Performance that make to order, I also know that Goodridge will do this too but charge a shed load for it.

Here's a link to the Hel site

I also got my braided fuel line and Earls inline fuel filter from them at a great price.

I think JB weld would crack over time. I wouldn't do it.
