right i have put an xe in my nova and i have had my calipers of the front end for about 6 months and now i cannot get the brakes to work after going through 3l of fluid and alot of time trying to bleed the brakes up but i still cant get them to work the peddal goes straight to the floor so does that mean there is no resistance in the peddal

if the pedal hits the floor, the master cylinder could be knackered, or there is serious airlocks in the pipes

what state are the rear brakes in????

do you have an easy bleed??

have the calipers been removed recently?? its been known for people to fit them upside down


this should be in mech.
