Looking for a little guidance fitting my new brake kit. I picked up a Power Stop One-Click Caliper Kit and a set ofTechna-Fit SS lines for my 2004 g35x. The kit consists of a set of remanufactured and red powder coated stock calipers, new ceramic pads, and new rotors for all four corners. The install was straightforward and the new parts look great. And for anyone looking to replace sticky calipers and do an aesthetic upgrade, RockAuto sells the kit at a steal of a price. I only have 100 or so miles on the brakes, but so far they seem as good as stock with a lot less dust. Time will tell whether the rotors are junk or not, but so far, so good.

My question is on the SS lines at the front wheels. The banjo bolt on the stock lines has a little stub that fits into the slot on the caliper so that when you tighten the through bolt, the banjo bolt cannot move and loosen itself. The aftermarket SS lines just have a round banjo bolt, no extra stub. So, if I mount the banjo bolt so that the stem of the bolt sits in the little slot on the caliper, it routes the line to sit right on top of the axle boot. The line will almost certainly rub the boot as the suspension articulates.

So, for anyone running SS lines on their AWD... Did you encounter this issue? If so, how did you address it? Has anyone tried mounting the banjo bolt outside the slot on the caliper, and if so, did it ever loosen up on you?
