Speed Bleeders

I'm not sure how I lived so long w/o getting these but if you flush your own brakes they are a very good idea IMHO. Did a quick page:

Ditto'ed 10x over.

With that vacuum pump that you have in your installs, along with the speed bleeders, I can bleed without even taking the wheels off, in about 5 minutes. Very, very awesome.

Yes both fronts and rears are the same size, the same size also fits the Subaru STi 4-Pots not sure about the 04' USDM STi Brembo's. (something I was not sure of till I had a chance to fit them)

Another recommendation - these things are great! (I have them on all of our cars!) - you can get them for the clutch slave cylinder, as well.

Peaty,

another quick question.
Is the thread pattern 7mm x 1.0 - Overall Length 34mm?
on the back of your package it says 7M x 1.0. which is the right one? are they both the same?
