hi guys i have just brought myself a vk calais to turn into a drag burnout toy . was tinkering with it today and noticed the rear brake line out of brake booster is broken . can i remove this and leave rear brakes disconected (for drags) or will this cause my rear brakes to jamm on. i wanna look at putting a tap or something in so i can turn rear on and off but not looks like i will have to replace the whole rear brake line .

the brakes won't lock up so if you want to disconnect them and bung up the outlet for the rear on the master cylinder

I'm not sure what ur looking to achieve with the brakes, but maybe a line locker may be an option to use, rather than doing a big spill on them str8 up, have you heard of them before?

im pretty sure its an imperial thread but don't have a clue what size. just cut the fitting off and take it into enzed or a place that does high pressure fittings and i'm sure they'll hook you up with the right one
