Heres the how to. You need the following tools:
Brake line wrenches 10mm, 11/16 ( for the new line ), DOT3 brake fluid, 8mm wrench to bleed the line.
1. remove intake, makes it easier.
2. put some rags undr the unions that you will be seperating.
3. using the 10mm wrench crack the lines. Undo the lines completely, yes brake fluid will run out. With the line disconnected remove the clips that hold the stock line in, the line will come right out.
4. install the new line, the clips are a bitch to put back on, be patiant and they will go on.
5. using the 11/16" wrench to hold the line, thighten the 10 mm nut on the stock hard line, do both.
6. now to bleed the line, follow the hard line to the slave cyl, there you will find a nipple, this is the bleed screw. Undo the screw and tighten again. You will need a second person. When the bleed screw is tight, have the person push the clutch pedal, undo the bleed screw, the pedal will go to the floor, continue to do this until all you get is fluid and no air. Make sure u keep the brake resevoir topped up, if you don't you will get air in the system and have to start bleeding again.
7. Once the bleeding is done, and you have double checked for leaks, you can put the intake back in and your done. Go and enjoy.
