Hey joe21m how did you go???

Few things that you should check is all your lines are not leaking (happened to me today). check it at the BMC and anywhere you have removed or loosened.

Also your not using the fluid thats comming out of the nipple are you cause alot of the time thats got plenty of bubbles in it and will cause you to just re air the system. It will look dirty but its really lots of fine bubbles.

Had a stab at doing mine but after the braided line conections leaked Ive given up and hopfully be done tomorrow.

Also have you checked all your connections???? have a look wipe them down and including all the ones one the caliper and anything you have loosened put pressure in the system like pump it 20 times with the engine on then check again. I just had a bith fight with mine with leaking connections due to the braided line having lots of connections at the BMC. But just finished and I was locking up everywhere (couldnt even get it to lock up before). Upgraded the BMC to BM44 (skyline and S14) and also GTR brakes and the thing stops on a dime. Stoked

are you bleeding all 4 brakes?

yes bleeding all 4, the brake pedal went hard when i did 3, then when i bled the last one (front driver side) it went back to what it was before, CRAP!

hey cefiro,

can you do me a favour...on your BMC can you check for me, when you screw the lid on, is it tight to screw on or does it go on fairly easy???

i noticed in your other thread your cap is yellow, mine is black? maybe its the wrong cap cause when i screw mine on its really easy to screw on...thinking maybe its not sealing properly hence no pressure in there???
