final steps
Acura NSX - Down To Brake - Install
13. Tighten down the two 17mm bolts on the back of the caliper bracket to secure it into place.
14. Use a socket to remove the 10mm bolt for the stock brake line brackets.
15. With a pair of pliers, pry off the clip for the brake line at the chassis.
16. Using a flared 10mm wrench, loosen the brake line from the hard line. This is where it gets messy.
17. With the provided copper washers, fasten the stainless steel brake line to the back of the caliper and tighten down.
18. Run the stainless steel line the same way the stock one was and fasten the brackets into place. Everything should be lined up like stock set up.
19. At the chassis, push the clip back into place and tighten the stainless steel line with a flare wrench.
20. Repeat the procedure for both sides and then get to bleeding. Have someone in the car depress the brake pedal while you open up the bleeder valves. This gets all the air out of the brake system. Make sure you don't run out of fluid at the master cylinder or you'll have to start all over again.
21. That wasn't too bad of an install. The break in procedure consists of going through a few heat cycles to get the pads and rotors ready to rock. Nothing a few drives up and down the 405 in traffic won't take care of.
