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

After looking at the condition of the brake callipers, I didn’t even bother to check the
state of the existing master cyl and decided to replace it.

And it was a good call.
Already it started to leak behind the rubber seal and the tiny amount of brake fluid
already stripped the paint at the brake booster base.

Just double checking the pushrod clearance with the SST.
Once again, no need to adjust.

It’s a brand new master cyl so best to bench bleed it before installing it on the car.

Otherwise, you are going to struggle to push out the tiny-tiny air bubbles trapped
inside the master cyl.

Installed and pressure bleeding the system at the moment.

Left the car on the lift for a while and then carried out the 2nd pressure bleeding process.

Happy with the result so started to adjust the parking brake.

The protection cover at the rear left calliper was already missing and right side was
about to fall.


As I had spare used parts, decided to use them as I didn’t want to see lots of debris
attached to these nicely refurbished callipers.
