davidyat here. OK, I'm at pack 9. I have the 1/8 brake bleeder valves from RB Motion. Does anyone know where I can get a close up of the brake disks and where the brake bleeder valves go on the calipers? Thanks.

Dave i dont know. TBH you are better off posting this in the general discussion room. I agree Steve, posting a general request for help in a persons' build diary is not the correct way to do it?  
Dave, if you ask the same question in a new topic in McLaren MP4/4 'General Discussions' then I can post a photo for you showing the location of the bleed valves, but it wouldn't be fair to do so on Steves' build diary?

Thank you for advising me on proper etiquette in the forums. I will go to the general question forums.

Those bolts do look tiny and fiddly Steve but they certainly give a nice contrast to the black gearbox. Nice work - well done!!

Cheers peeps. Stage 40 done now. Rear shock reservoirs connected by braided hosing. Rear Brake line and Gearbox top. I thought that the braided hosing might be tricky but it was ok.  Senna mclaren mp4/4 build complete mp4/4 build http://forum.model-space...spx?g=posts&t=12029
