ST1G's s52 OBDII Calypsorot

[ThatOneEuroE30]

this is with the bleeder valve on the caliper open yes? trying to think of what it could be.

[ST1G]

So this is what happens when I press the brake pedal down. It sucks the fluid in, but as soon as I release it just pushes it back up.

You musn't ever change your sig.

;D

Keep bleeding. Had it happen to me

Well, I pump and pump and pump on the brake petal and I'm getting zero pulling of the fluid from the res. I'll go out and try pumping some more.

ST1G's Calypsorot Metallic build

Well, I went to bleed the brakes tonight and I ran into a snag. I am using a hand vac system.

I bled the pass rear no problems, pulled fluid out until I had no more air, moved on.

On the driver side however I pulled fluid for a little longer, hoping to flush out all the old fluid. I pulled out about 6 oz of fluid, and went to make sure I had fluid in the reservoir, curiously enough it was still full. I then pressed on the brake and it sank to the floor. I'm not really sure what to check at this point. I'm assuming there is something wrong with my master or my brake bolster? Any advice would be great.

Keep bleeding. Had it happen to me. It was just air in the system. If it doesn't work after a second good bleeding then yea something else is messed up.

Eeew. No thanks. The calypso is so gorgeous because it's a metallic paint.

Yayyy. When do you plan on paint? Gonna start saving after the style 5's

Yeah, I'm not sure on the paint. the 16 inch style 5's are easy to procure, and I'd be happy with those for a while.

So yeah, after that save for paint.

So whats all left?

The only thing I need to do before I drive it, is bleed the brakes, and put the air box back in.

I also need to get the power steering on a new arm, and add the belt. That's pretty much it.

Then it's time to find some style 5's and buy some adaptors. (I think).
