Today at Atelier Kaz - ex-Honda R&D, F1, Indy/CART engineer

Pressure bleed the brake system.
As I didn't have to overhaul the master cyl this time, there was no need to empty it so fairly straight forward process.

Addition to the later spec brake caliper and bracket, I already upgraded my ABS to the latest one body type so always bleed the brake from the front side to save time and fluid.
You can still follow the old text book method of bleeding from the furthest corner from the master cyl but you will use extra fluid.

Even so, took extra time and fluid bleeding the RL corner this time.


After the 1st round, the pedal already felt rock solid but as a standard procedure, carried out another round.
Kept the system under pressure for about 1Hr and happy with the result.





With the wet weather, the humidity was bit high so not great for the painting but no option as I have to free up the lift by the end of tomorrow so started just a quick touch up.
By the time I finished the 1st coat, it was already 11:30pm so time to take some rest.



Just need to adjust the parking brake, gentle test driving to let the abrassive top coating of the brake pad to do its work and for a few 100 miles, I'll be using gentle braking.


Looks like I can finish everything just in time.
