Default People with COBRA calipers...HELP :(

I just purchased Cobra calipers for my 2000 GT. Does anyone know if I can use my stock front brake hoses (the flexible one that connects to the caliper). I know the banjo bolt is different. To my understanding the banjo bolts are corse threaded.

yep123,only drawback is you can't go smaller than a 17inch wheel, which isn't a drawback to some/most ppl.

You can, but there it really is a good time to upgrade to stainless lines.
