Default Ok, I need some expert help here...

Alrighty. here is a quick run down of whats up. i have a 96 dx hatch. revamping the entire brake setup as well as suspension. I have 96 gsr rear disc conversion, '02 itr master cylinder and brake booster. If anyone read my last thread i found out that my stock 13/16th's booster was much different than the itr booster i bought. the inlet that goes from the booster to the prop. valve for the itr booster is on the other side of where the stock one is... Instead of just taking the easy way out and getting an ex booster ive decided im going to make do with what i have and make it work.

Ok now for the tech. Last night i was thinking of ways i could do this and then it dawned on me. Is there anyway I can keep the existing hard line in place, attach a male to male adapter on it, buy myself another 12" piece of brake line flare the ends of that, add new fittings and just bend it to go around the bottom of the itr booster, connect it from the old line to the inlet and bada bing bada boom. It doesnt sound too tricky, but the problem im running into is I dont know where to get the parts especially the male-to-male adapter (if someone even makes one)

The way the original hard line was run (a staight line almost) its not long enough to just rebend it around the booster.

Ok so here are the questions i have:

1.) Will this even work, does it sound possible?
2.) If it is possible, where can i pick up an an adapter, hard brake lines, fittings?
3.) Is there an easier, more effective way?

I just realized something... I can just buy one long brake line, flare the ends myself and just reuse the old fittings and than hook it up right from the prop. valve to the booster... i am dumb

question still stands though, where do i get a longer hard brake line from??
