Confirm brake bleed bolt size
Can anyone confirm the brake bleeder size? I searched and came up with 8mm. But i want to make sure it is 8mmx1.25.
I looked on summit racing and they have both 8 and 10mm listed, and they say 10mm is for honda.

On my LS, its 10mm all around.
For Russell speed bleeders, they listed a 8mm for the rear calipers, which was wrong and the bleeders feel into the hole.

Ok searchd around the web a bit and came up with this. http://www.buybrakes.com/russell/apps-Acura.html
It looks as though the front is 10mm and the rear is 8mm. Kinda makes sense as the rear is a smaller caliper!

10mm is the thread.
Do NOT buy the 8mm. I have a set right here and they are TOO SMALL They use the same size one on the rear as the front. I made the mistake already.
The Russell application chart IS WRONG

Cause of the mistake, I took the new bleeder that came on the front rebuilt caliper and put them on the rear calipers and only installed the speed bleeders on the front.
