Brake feel post bled
I know this has been discussed a thousand times, but I couldn't find my particular issue/ concern >>>
I completed the gravity bleed with ATE Super Blue this past week-end. I thought everything was set, but now I'm not so sure. I only saw some bubbles coming from the rear right, but once the super blue began to flow the bubbles were gone. No bubbles ever seen in the other brakes. I assumed no air in the lines. The MC never dropped low. That being said, I only used about half the liter when I bled the lines.
Brakes now feel a little softer (Motul was in before). They feel pretty close to my Si's in terms of progression and engagement.
Light up top >>> Progressive feel from 1/3 depressed until firm at around 60% depressed. I ran the car and stood on the brakes a few times last night, and the pedal felt solid at around 60% depressed.
Question for others >>> I read people talking about firm brakes and I'm wondering if I'm not experiencing this. I expected engagment to be sooner and the brake pedal to feel firmer.
