I have a couple of questions regarding the cts-v brake upgrade to my formula firebird. The first is the dot 4 fluid I used. It was the super blue racing brake fluid. The second is that I have no brake pressure after bleeding the brakes. It goes to the floor and takes forever to stop. I noticed a leak from the rear. I am guessing the bleeder or the rear stainless steel brake lines I installed. I have the flybyne ones. Is there anything else I should look for besides that leak or is that probably it? I also thought it was ok to use the dot 4 fluid since I do not drive the car except for in the summer. I used the motive hand pump pressurized bleeder to bleed the lines. Any help I would appreciate. I need to clear my head and attack this tomorrow. thanks guys

I figured it out. the copper crush washer on the rear brake caliper was not seated properly. i put a second in with it and it sealed. Then i rebled the brakes. The car stops on a dime now, brake upgrade was really worth it.
