I am in the final phase of my rig and this little sheot is kikilling me!!! I need 16mm inverted flare fittings so I can make my pressure hose. I have found sources for 16mm with an o-ring seal, but no inverted flare. The local hydraulic shop thinks the metric system is an urban legend. There is no stock app. (at least that I have found) with the right bends in the hardline.

Have the shop take your metric flare and braze it on to the hard line that works. May need to buy the fitting/hose at the parts store doesn't matter if it is the right application or not since you only need the fitting.

call Orme Bros and see if they can help you out...they make all my custom "off the wall" shit....in fact, they were the only place I could find the tranny ling fittings for a chevy 350 (metric pipe to flare, or somthing like that)...

URJB-Its a toy Celica, I'd love to know where you got 'em! I can find the Chevy style metrics with the o-ring, but not the inverted flare.
Poppy-Its Power Industries, who is usually great, but they don't do metric. If I can ffind the fittings they will make a hose. How is your rig coming?
