Thumbs up a big thanks to all..................

thanks guys for the advice.....................
could'nt have done it with out you.........
ok i'm done.......
2 weeks ago i got my 88 na. each night after work i would go out and do a little something on the car. changed struts, plugs and wires, flush radiator.
clean car and tighten any loose stuff. took out the carpet and crap from the back of the car.
then my problems began ..... brakes.... the brakes were not bad and rotors looked good but fluid looked really old, no prob i though, start to drain and flush then no brakes no pedal pressure nada.
call my dad for help .......panic he had to rush my mom to the hospital and she had to go through a bunch of test. so i did'nt work on the car for a few days.
today (sat 6-15) i finnally get to try to fix the brakes and nothing works. to much stress i guess......
anyway i go online and look up all the old post for advice and bam new ideas.......... that work!!!!!!!
so now the car is packed and ready for it's and my first track day(road race). just hope to survive with all intack......
it won't be much more than a shake down run to get a feel for the car and see what it and me need for the future.
since i was in such a hurry to get the car fixed i did'nt remeber whose advice finnally worked for me but i just wanted to tell all of you here that i really appreciate all the help i find here on the forum and look forward to much more learning in the future.........
THANKS GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i just could'nt get fluid to flow. then tried some suggestions from the forum and worked like a charm.
cracked the valves and pump forever it seems but fluid did come. flushed whole system and works perfect.
