Starting my 5 Speed Install! Help requested.

I already ripped everything out of my SVX and bought 04 WRX parts and a new Clutch/Flywheel setup.

I'm starting to do the pedals and ran into a slight problem. The brake lines that go to the ABS unit are in the way of one of the clutch master cylinder bolts. In all the pics I've seen of other peoples installs I didn't notice this problem.

ideas?

THIS F***** sucks!!!!! The '04 pedals are a B**** to get in! They interfere with the main wiring harness in the white plastic up top, and the brake booster push rod is so long where I'd have to cut it - there'd be no threads left. So I'm trying to take it out do I can use a tap and die set on it and the brake booster seems nearly impossible to pull.

getting mad

I had no problem with the wires on mine and I forgot about adding threads to the rod for the brake booster because my dad did that part.
