You are correct... hence the reason I'm using Racing Brake lines now. LOL

I kept the factory hard lines in the rear on my car, but bypasses them on Travis' car since he didn't get them with his Akebono kit.

Always keep the hard lines if possible. Goodridge makes a kit for the Sport Akebono's as well as for the OE sliding calipers. The difference is with the ends on the caliper side. If you have the Akebono's and the OE hard tubing, order the Sport brake lines. If you don't, order the non-Sport setup. Both fit their intended applications perfectly.
