For more information and/or to purchase a set of StopTech Brake Lines for your Civic, see this page: www.procivic.com/pages-produc...
In this video, we upgrade the brake lines on our project 1999 Honda Civic EX. We selected StopTech Stainless Steel Brake Lines for maximum longevity, durability, and the best pedal feel.
Benefits of StopTech Stainless Steel Brake Lines:
* Improved pedal feel (inspires braking confidence and results in faster braking).
* Unique PVC cover is corrosion resistant for long life and protection against chaffing.
* Strain relief devices that help reinforce end fittings and prevent kinks or hard bends.
* Will not deteriorate from brake fluid like stock rubber lines.
Fits:
1996 to 2000 Honda Civic EX models. Many other applications available.
Summary of Important Steps of the StopTech Brake Lines Installation:
1. After jacking the car up, rotate the wheel so the back of the caliper is easily accessible. Also put down a spill mat and oil pan.
2. Remove the main brake line bolt from the caliper ( • StopTech Stainless Ste... .
3. Remove the bolt that is holding the middle of the brake line to the front knuckle/arm ( • StopTech Stainless Ste... .
4. Disconnect the rest of the factory rubber line ( • StopTech Stainless Ste... .
5. Install the new StopTech line, making sure to use the new supplied hardware where applicable ( • StopTech Stainless Ste... .
6. Let the BLEEDING process begin! The bleeding of the brake fluid that is. You'll need a buddy for this part, since one person has to sit in the car and pump the brakes. ( • StopTech Stainless Ste... .
7. Repeat the above steps for the other side of the car.

Thanks guy!

+Jeff Barlow The rotors are installed correctly per StopTech. Someone else actually asked the same question before.

@fionnan2811happy 7 лет назад

also handy tip is use a loop of clear tubing just for catching debris if there is any

@jaredreynolds7192 2 года назад

I had a line going back to the MC to recycle it and let all the air out you can do this by yourself like I did pump it for about 3 mins than make sure the line has no more bubbles and your good

@fionnan2811happy 7 лет назад

brake line retainer clip... and they are stainless steel hoses. but nice job. and never squeeze just if u want to rotate hose to be free from touching stuff or it will ware through very quickly.

@macgroober1396 8 лет назад

I had trouble hearing the commentary over the music

@jeffb837 8 лет назад

Aren't the rotors on backwards? Slotted lines in the rotor should sweep the direction of rotation. Slot opening low and moving back and up?

@tsengyang5271 8 лет назад

Yeah, Stoptech brakes!

@DiscipleofChrist101 3 года назад

Can you do a goodridge steel brake line install on a 10th gen Honda Civic non-si?

@raysb240sx 3 года назад

Will those steel braided lines fit a 98 CX model?

@rizocars6115 9 лет назад

great video

@kennyman338 8 лет назад

your bleed bottle was empty and wasn't submerged in brake fluid. So you were basically sucking up air back into the lines.

@procivic 8 лет назад

+kenneth man Actually we only release the fluid in the line when positive pressure is being applied by holding down the brake pedal. No air will get in this way.

@brucel8891 6 лет назад

Would like to see a video of someone changing the other 2 lines as i can only see videos for hose to the caliper

@procivic 6 лет назад

+bruce L Do you mean the actual metal lines? It is fairly rare and uncommon to need replace these.

@brucel8891 6 лет назад

PRO Car Studio no i mean you can get a 6 line kit obviously 4 of them go to the calipers but where do the other 2 go?

@procivic 6 лет назад

+bruce L We are not entirely sure. From the diagrams we can find for the car, they only have 4 hoses. The rest is all metal lines. Please email us directly at customercare@procivic.com to see if our techs can assist you more.

@theearthenstar1355 2 года назад

I got these stop tech lines for my ex and the mechanic said they were too long. I got g stop lines and they said they also were too long. Is this mechanic not good or is there a trick?

@procivic 9 лет назад

Nein, These brake lines should help with the "spongie" feeling you are talking about.

@idaniaruiz4289 9 лет назад

Great video got a subscribe from me videos would be better if the camera caught a closer shot of the steps

@jofro2040 5 лет назад

So new brake hoses solve mushy pedal after a fresh pad and rototr install ?Or is it the STEEL hose that solves this issue? And was cover off master or on during this process?

@procivic 5 лет назад

It could definitely have been the hoses if the originals were in bad shape. However, replacing all the other parts mentioned could have certainly helped with this as well. The cover was also off the master during the process.

@thehappycamper7360 8 лет назад

do you not need to re flare the rigid pipeline after cracking off the 10mm nut?

@procivic 8 лет назад

+Alex Tomblin No, you don't.

@thehappycamper7360 8 лет назад

+ProCivic.com okay thanks I'm doing a tear disc swap for the first time tomorrow on my dc1, so to confirm I can undo the line to the hub then bolt up the new line to the rigid pipeline?

@procivic 8 лет назад

+Alex Tomblin Yes, assuming it physical fits and is in good condition. The line does not need to be re-flared.

@idratherbefission 6 лет назад

I am currently doing the same upgrade on my wife's 2015 fit. I noticed that the 10mm brake fitting doesn't engage nearly as deep as the stock female fitting. It looks like you experienced the same thing. Did this cause any problems in the operation of the brakes?

@procivic 6 лет назад

+Chris S. It does not matter. The way the lines seal is actually with the flare at the end of the tube, not by the amount of threads. The fitting on the steel lines is normally taller and doesn't seem to go in as deep, but if you compare them, you'll notice that they go in roughly the same amount.

@idratherbefission 6 лет назад

I'm aware of how they seal, which is why I opted to put the old OEM hoses back on. The stoptechs have a small protrusion inside the female end (where the stock hard lines thread into). The best I can tell, it is some kind of inverted fitting. But the double flare on the stock hardline does not seem like it would mate up the way they are designed to work. These fittings rely solely on that flare seating properly. I just cant see that happening with this design.

@procivic 6 лет назад

+Chris S. If they were purchased from us, I would recommend contact customercare@procivic.com to see if we can help verify it or contact the place they were purchased to ensure they were correct. In most cases, as long as a few threads are on there and it's tight, it should be fine. But if there is an issue with the flare, it's best to have them double verified.

@idratherbefission 6 лет назад

I plan on contacting Stoptech when I get a moment. I'll reply with the outcome.

@procivic 6 лет назад

+ Chris S. That is a good idea. I looked through Stoptechs' catalog and was not able to find lines for your specific model. I recommend contacting the site or store you purchased them from as well.

@egtavio 5 лет назад

How much times do you pump them hold the brake ?

@egtavio 5 лет назад

Then*

@procivic 5 лет назад

In general, it is best to pump atleast 3 times before holding the brakes for the bleeding process.

@FroztiProductions 3 года назад

How flexible are the lines? I do a lot of suspension work so I'm constantly hanging the caliper by a bungie cord. Wondering if it's harder to keep from straining the line.

@raiders4690 2 года назад

They bend pretty well…. not as much as the stock ones tho but the feeling and performance is wayyy better

@jsj221991 9 лет назад

great video but the brake rotor are not installed properly.. they should be switched from left to right.. sind the coolin vents inside should be facing forward..

@procivic 9 лет назад

They look to be installed correctly. See this file from StopTech: stoptech.com/docs/installation-manuals/stoptech-sport-rotor-instructions?sfvrsn=6

@jsj221991 9 лет назад
