I mean you can drill the head out in 30 seconds, it's not a big deal. Just some people thing they serve a purpose.

Impact screw drivers are awesome! And a little bottle propane torch does wonders. Just put a little a to seize on them for piece of mind, stuff does wonders. Best thing ever invented lol

"Oh Nooo!"

Brakes are being a super b****! I bought a cheap ass vacuum bleeder and I bled the two rears for an hour and still got crazy air bubbles. I went back and Teflon taped all my flare nuts in the lines I made since I could see a little fluid around the flare nuts. I haven't tried again because I had to head into work, but I'm going to give it another shot to tonight or tomorrow depending how tired I feel. I also Teflon taped my bleeder screws in the calipers as well.
Job well done man.Alrighty! I just turned the last bolt on the brake swap and its done except for a bleed and adjusting the hand brake cables!
Since they don't sell ate blue anymore, I got the type 200. Same thing just legal because it's not blue
And here's the finished products! Energy suspension front upper control arm bushings installed with new honda hardware, replaced a the wheel bearings, and front lower ball joints, brand new re manufactured nissin calipers at all four corners, energy suspension RTA bushings installed, centric rotors and hawk hps pads, and Russell stainless steel soft lines.
Thanks for following!!!

I would make sure your flares are ok. I've never heard or seen a Teflon taped fitting on a car, I'm not sure how well that will work. Awesome if it fixes it though
But remember on a flare it's not the threads that seal it, it's the taper in he flare. So taping those fittings won't help. Bleeder screws it can

brake fluid is super caustic isnt it?
