M12 X 1.0, at least in USA. here is a little writeup i did on MotorGeek.com

ok. second DIY for me here.... write up after testing and the pix will be up, the photobucket ran out of bandwidth, they will return.

i did a 5 speed 01E swap into the Coupe Quattro. and i do not like the stock rubber/hardline clutch hydraulic line. i made one for the rabbit when i did that swap, so i figured to make one for this car as well. on the rabbit i had AN fittings silver soldered onto the factory hardline ends. then a braided SS line, with Teflon lining, made up.

this one has actual fittings for the master and slave. the 01A and the 01E (5 spd from UrS4) have the same slave cylinder, BTW. i checked the fitting compared to the stock fitting, and things were pretty close.





i did shave just a little bit of the nut on the cylinder side of the fitting.



just to make certain it seated all the way into the master cyl.



the slave cyl was fine.



when i ordered the parts, i got 2 pr fittings and 3 lines to be sure i got a good length.

the parts i used were from this website: www.Dash3.com and in talking with the guy he said to run -3AN line. this is his specialty so i went with it. and it pushes the FX-700 Twin Disc clutch just fine i have to say.

the parts i used were these:

306-03 M12S 12mm x 1.0 Concave

306-03-M12S -3 TO 12MM X 1.00 - STEEL (CONCAVE SEAT) $3.50

610318 -3 FEMALE STRAIGHT TO STRAIGHT 18" $9.80

610320 -3 FEMALE STRAIGHT TO STRAIGHT 20" $10.40

610322 -3 FEMALE STRAIGHT TO STRAIGHT 22" $11.30




and the final look of the finished product. works fine, too.
