ABS Bleed

[Squizz]

How do you bleed the ABS unit?

[Squizz]

Hello?

[GTRman1992]

Didn't think you had too. Call the "ABS Brake" place in Sumner Park and ask to speak with Ken, he is the guru of all things GTR. Been to Japan on the Nissan training and also spent a few years on a race team.

Hmm, Duncan just told me to remember to bleed the ABS. I forgot. My brakes are mushy now.

I replaced my booster and master cylinder.

Then filled and bled the brakes at the calipers.

Then test drove and they are mushy and don't stop that well.

So yeah, I would like to know how you do it.

[Duncan]

Exactly the same as the other brake nipples, you just do them last. EIther 1 or 2 nipples on top of the ABS unit.

Good to hear you got ur bleed problem sorted adam.

This is how mr nissan says to do a 32 gtr

[Abo Bob]

Hmm, I don't think I have that. I have two little ball bearings instead.

My r33 abs unit doesn't have a normal looking bleed nozzle on it either. i too would be interested in how to bleed it.

[Abo Bob]

I had a real good look today and can find no nipple, however, my brakes now seem to be fine. I think they are just different to before and it freaked me out.

[MANWHORE]

Mine are 'fine' too, but they just don't feel crisp. I have never driven other abs r33s.

But compared to my lexus gs300, there seems to be a lot more 'flop' in the initial bit of the pedal, like it doesnt' seem to do much up there, whereas in the lexus, it is very tight and firm, just like my clutch pedal.

[Abo Bob]

Haha, this same thing is in 3 threads now.

Not certain about Nissan's but I know another Japanese vehicles require you to connect there consult program/handheld and do it with that, in a certain order etc.

Cheers
