Default Speed Bleeders for EK?

Hey,

I have a 99 Civic DX with stock discs/drums and wanted to get speed bleeders. I searched Summit Racing page, and came up with different sizes:

10mm x 1.0 in. thread, 35mm long
8mm x 1.25 in. thread, 24mm long

If I remember correctly, original bleeder screws are 8mm ones.

So, EK gurus, what's the correct size for front and rear, and is there a good place to get them?

Rus

Unless you changed your bleeder on the stock caliper, it should be the same.

Just call brian @ fastbrakes.
Brian's the man. Just in case anyone is wondering about thread sizing for EK Civics,
Front: 10x1.0
Rear: 8x1.0

I just ordered a set.

How come my experience at fastbrakes.com was not as pleasant as some of you guys make it sound to be? I'm not sure who I talked to, but I wanted to order green stuff pads for my car so I called them on the phone. The receptionist tells me "hold on let me get your phone number" and he'll call me right back. I go ahead and do some crap on my computer for over an hour and still never received a call. I say SCREW FASTBRAKES.COM. But that's just me. Talk about ghetto customer service from a ghetto small business.
