    Either way you put the calipers there is always gonna be a bleed nipple on the top on one side and on the bottom of the other. There is only one bleed nipple per caliper. As said above the only just found out myself on the s14s there is no banjo bolts, so I need to get s14 lines!
    Thanks for the help

    both bleed nipples are 110% supposed to be at the top of the caliper...if one caliper has one at the bottom an the other caliper has one at the top you have 2 of the same caliper instead of a left an right set
