Also, did you have to install another set of calipers in the back or just ran the lines to the oem rear calipers?
You cut the line under the car going to the rear T and double flare your newly cut ends. The hydro has an inlet port and an outlet port. You then make two lines. The line coming from the brake master (from the front of the car) goes in the inlet. Then run a second line from the outlet to the line going to the rear T. Bleed brakes like normal, and you have a working in-line hydro
I'll help if you need it. It real easy. Luckily my car had a union fitting literally right underneath the car so I didnt have to cut anything. Im not sure if yours has that too. Not that it really makes a difference, just saves some flaring time. Because no one likes flaring time.

Yea that seems pretty simple. What year is your car? I have a late model 325i. Did you brakes feel any different after you were done?
Nah, its not hard at all man! Im on the opposite end of the spectrum. Mines an '84. Mine felt different at first but that's because I didn't bleed them enough. That extra line really makes a difference, so bleed them well.

It's also a 4 door....
Meh, Ive always liked e30 coupes a lot more than sedans. Besides, some retard PO welded the seats to the rails (no sliders), so they cant slide forward or backward, meaning no one gets in back without climbing over the generic bucket seats lol.
