I know its a lame question but I couldn't find it in my owners manual anywhere. So anybody know where I look to check my brake fluid on an s14?

Edit: &nbsp;I would reply but I don't want this going back to the top <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> &nbsp;thanks chickenman

Hey hey, yo yo. &nbsp;Take a look on your firewall where the brake pedal would be. &nbsp;There should be a round drum with a reservoir attached to it. &nbsp;Open up the reservoir and check your fluid level. &nbsp;Right next to it will be the clutch master cylinder. &nbsp;It's most likely a smaller reservoir. &nbsp;It doesn't have a big drum coming off the firewall.

By the way, haven't gotten the piece yet. &nbsp;Gonna post a link in a second.

just a tip its better to check your brake fluid level without opening the reservoir just keep your brake reservoir clean so you could see the brake fluid from the outside. the reason for this is when you expose your brake fluid to open air it will absorb air and you will be prone to brake fluid foaming during hard braking.
just a tip if ever you found the reservoir........j/k..... &nbsp;

I think it's the one with a yellow cap, I'm not sure, cause I painted mine black <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>.
