Darrin is going to have to check on the bleeder screw size before he can order.

I'll order mine now if we're going to order separately. Speak up and be hurrd!

My fronts are 10mm my backs are 8mm (I always have to be difficult).
We might as well buy seperately since mine is going to be a bit of a odd order.

It looks like Oakos adds another $28 to the cost of the Speed bleeders for STi brembos. That puts the purchase price to nearly $150 for you STi guys. I'm still trying to find out whether I need different lines for my stock rears and STI fronts.

Yea, but with free shipping it's still cheaper than Mach V. I'm going to order today.

I'm not certain the coating matters. It's more for looks than anything else. The set I had on my Galant were totally bare and I never had an issue with them.

I have a couple of e-mails out for info on lines and speed bleeders for my set-up. I may be SOL on the speed bleeders.

Also, if your just going for the cheapest price, and your ditching the speed bleeders, JSC Speed is $79 for the Techna Fit.

I'd like to get the Goodridge lines and speed bleeders together, but sice I have Brembos up front and stock in back and they don't have a order option for that. Also, I want to make sure that the Goodridge lines will fit with my stock rear/brembo front set-up, or do I need to buy a front lines for STi and back lines for WRX?

I'm going to presume that you need STI ones up front and WRX ones in the rear. I take it you have called/e-mailed them to ask?
