My only gaff lately was not realizing that the Akibono brakes have two bleeder valves on each caliper... Wasted a lot of Motul trying to "bleed all the air" out of the system...

Something similar happened to me on my Z32. I was bleeding the clutch and could not get any pressure to build up. I replaced the slave cylinder, changed the line for an SS one and after like 4 bottles of fluid.... nothing. I gave up and then discovered, after driving quite a few miles with low pressure on the system, that there was another bleed valve on the engine bay besides the ones on the master and slave cylinders..
