I didn't know putting a set of wheels on a car made you become a master mechanic?

The Master Cylinder? Really? I replaced mine 2 days ago, never having done it before. Took 2.5 hours, including bleeding the brakes. I can't really think of anything that I had a hard time getting to...

The 101 Performance Projects book, unfortunately, doesn't help that much. So much of it is for the E36's, but the Pelican Parts web site has tons of great technical articles that should help you a great deal.

Good luck, man. If you've already fixed a bunch of stuff, then you're that much closer to being done with repair work (for a while, at least!).

haha, I know, that's why it's so irritating,its an easy job. woof. Thanks for that info on the pelican book

from my other thread

SWEET JESUS!!
HALLELUJAH!!
I finally got pressure on the master cylinder and the car feels amazing!
I spent a pitiful/retarded three weeks on this project. I have a huge learning curve on fixing cars, (apparently) But now I can do this thing blindfolded
things I learned,highlites
1. I will be doing a thorough write up son,took forever to get situated with how the bolts come out (hard to see and reach)
2. read on tips and tricks,(so many)figured out that I can just detach the hard line from the MC at the soft line connection.
3. buy OEM!! ,bought a shitty mc from autozone that broke right after I installed it
4. Tried the reverse pump method and situated a modified oil can, did not work.
5. the old manual pumping proved best.
So the hardest parts are now learned, and I will be doing my own thorough write-up soon with much needed pics to accommodate diy'ers of my skill (barf)
I believe if I had to do another one it would be situated in one day and take but an hour to do the whole project .
I can safely say the timing belt was much easier than this nasty ordeal.
Thanks to all who gave great (much needed) advice on this what was thought to be simple procedure.

So the down time of my car gave me some time to search and really think of how I want the E30 to go. It did help. I now appreciate it even more!
So I stuck with it and it is now rolling again :) feels even better!
I've learned alot from this as taking time to do stuff right the first time, putting soo much time into learning how to complete this project. Just a huge learning curve on cars. First time 3 days, second time 30 minutes. It's retarded I know. But whats done is done and I can only take what I learned from this and apply it to the next project on this "'ol bucket" *wink)
Thanks again guys :)
