Looking to install my prodrive springs soon and was reading this post:
http://www.rs25.com/forums/showthread.php?t=70898

I have agx's in the front and gr-2's in the rear (bought the car like that) and am wondering if i can do this without hacksawing my struts (like in post above) or needing to bleed my brakes afterwards?

From looking at where the brake line attaches to the strut, i think i may be out of luck on this, but wanted to check here first.

Here some pictures of where the brake line hits the front strut.

If im planning to install SS lines in the near future would i be much better served to just wait until then to do the springs as well since it looks like ill probably be bleeding my brake line anyway?

Thanks

no your good to go man. looks like someone cut a slit in the metal to open it up a little bit where the line goes through... that is usually a solid piece no cut. so pull th clip holding the line in and grab a pair of pliers and twist the tab gently until you can get the line out! all set!

bend that piece back so you can remove the brake line... Or you want to do it the hard way
remove the entire brake line then replenish all the fluid.. just bend it back and call it a day then remove

Just remove the brake line and bleed the brakes. You probably need to bleed them anyway.

I cut my stock ones. I just ziptie them onto that bracket. I don't like how Subaru did that.

Your stuff has already been cut for you lol. Remove the clip, take a decent set of pliers, and bend the tabs until you can free the lines.
