Does everyone have these on their brakes?

The part that is circled in red is a 90 degree bend with a banjo bolt in it. The purpose of this is to keep the line away from the wheel well, as far as I know.

The prior owner of my car did a 5 lug hub conversion, which I think is off of a certain year DSM (unsure which). I had a problem with my brake line wearing through because the wheel was rubbing against it. I bought two of these 90 degree fittings so I could put them on the rear tires, because I'm pretty sure that those are the only calipers that they're on. I heard that certain years have them and the rest don't. I was wondering why this is, as well as which years have them and which do not.

all dsms have 5 lugs i beleive. I think the banjo fitting came off of the 95+ year awd brakes. the 92-94 had the bigger calipers too but no banjo fitting.
 
read his post, he said the prior owner did a 5 lug conversion. And probably swapped them for a 95+ gsx calipers n rotors.
 
Hey, thats my pic LOL My car is a 1990 2.0 NT and thats how the rubber lines were hooked up when I did the ss line install. I've had absolutley no problems since install either.
