SS brake line installation
 
I know I need to use flare nut wrench to remove the oem lines. Does anybody know what size? metric or standard?

I am not sure of the size but they are metric. The whole car is metric. The normal sizes that I have experenced with the SVX are 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 17mm, 19mm. the 12 and 14 are the most used on this car.

If you get a flare set of metric's that will cover the one you need.

Okay I bought a five piece set that has different sizes on each end. I hope I won't need two of the same size at the same time. You know one to stabilize and the other to break loose.

Its 10mm and you should only need 1

But remember, when you think you will only need one, you will usually end up needing two. :D

I don't know what a flare nut wrench is, but I helped a fellow SVXer replace his lines with just the standard wrenches and tools.
