Yeah, I should do that, I just need to get rid of the metal on metal grinding - NOW. I would want to upgrade to Slotted or Drilled, but I don't have time for that right now. I just want to get it running. I do have speed bleeders, just not installed yet. How much do braided lines go for about?

I used to do brakes on my Jeep, and I wouldn't have to drain the system or anything, I'd just compress the cylinders, install new pads (machine rotors if necessary)...and off I went. Is it any different on the VR4?

Thanks for all the help/info guys.

Luke
