the pedal always travels the same amount before you actually feel it getting harder and building up pressure.

the first 1,5 to 2 inch pedal travel you dont feel anything, then it gets harder and pressure builds up.

also, where do the bubbles in the rear chamber come from when releasing the pedal .. .? the MC is brand new ....

i was bench bleeding the whole unit to a point, when only fluid is seen in the hoses ... at that point no bubbles occured when releasing the screwdriver out of the bore. just like you see it on youtube how-tos it worked just fine.

once i installed it the bubbles came back ...

The lines are D-03, 3.17 mm inner diamater which comes to 0.124" or around 1/8". Since these lines have 2,850 psi working pressure and 12,000 psi burst pressure i have no hardlines ... the core of these lines is like plastic , not rubber ....

well , the 1000 psi is ok for me, so there maybe is no air in the system ... just the brake booster support doesnt fit right in ... maybe the travel of the BB doesnt fit the MC ? too little stroke ?

i will do some tryouts tonight and will post the latest results ...

frustrating ... thats the whole car by the way and I really wanna drive it with functional brakes ...
