AN -4 fitting question

#1

Hi,
I’m looking for some help please.
I try to find a fitting for my brake system.

First, I have to say that I don’t race in the E30spec serie, since I’m in Canada, but, I still play with my E30 on the track.

I do have a homemade BBK with Wilwood calipers. The SS braided brake hoses have a M10 fitting at the end (to fit the BMW caliper), but I installed on it a M10 to -4 adaptor from Aeroquip (#FCM 2946) to mate to the Wilwood caliper.
The thing is that I also race in a serie, and it is required that I run the stock calipers. I would like to find a find a fitting that would convert from -4 (female) to M10 (male) that would go in the OEM caliper, and make the caliper change process faster, by being able to unscrew at the -4 fitting.

I looked in a Aeroquip distributor webpage, but they don’t show any pictures, and I’m confused by all these 6 pages of descriptions.

Did anyone ever used that kind of fitting?
A part # would be very appreciated.

I think this is exactly what you are looking for.

Nevermind this is Male on both sides.

Thanks.
I forgot to mention that on the E30, the thread is M10X1.0
In the links, they list M10X1.5 :frowning:
