Hi all,
 
I\'m in the process of fitting Mazda RX-7 calipers to my Volvo 340. I\'ve made up adaptor brackets to get the caliper to fit to the strut, and sourced some larger discs which work too.
 
I\'m now stuck, as I\'m not sure of the best way to connect all the hoses/pipes together.
 

 
The mazda caliper has this copper pipe fitted to it. I assume that mazda hoses will hapilly connect to this.
 
So, the plan is to get some mazda hoses connected to the caliper. At the other end of the hose, the idea is to replace the brake line running from the master cylinder with something which will connect to the other end of the mazda hose.
 
What kind of fitment is at the brake pipe/hose junction, and where can i get hold of one, if I\'m making up a new set of brake pipes to run from the master cylinder?
 
Any help is appreciated!
 
Cheers,
 
Tom
