So I have 2 Spiderbox's or Spiderboxi (not sure what the plural is):lolgoku: but anyways I had a brake system that didn't work on one so I replace the master cylinder brake lines and banjo bolt and caliper and pads filled it up with Dot4 until the fluid was coming out of the bleeder hole on the caliper but I still don't have any pressure on the brakes when I'm pressing down and I'm insanely frustrated I'm not sure what to do!!! I will have pictures up shortly it just started raining so I had to stop📱📱

Step on brakes. Bleed bolt unscrew till fluid comes out. Keep brakes depressed. Tighten bleed bolt. Release pedal.

Repeat a few times. You should see no bubbles/hissing come out of bleed bolt.

Also , could be the brake cylinder seals are bad/corroded brake cylinder.

Sounds like a place women go to get a Pedicure... in a bad neighborhood. Ghetto Spa.

This, if in doubt, you can put a piece of clear tubing on the bleeder so you can see the fluid as it comes out.

So I bleed the brakes for 3 hours and still no pressure on the pedal I even used a I can assure you I'm doing something right I took off the caliper and the piston isn't moving ... Faulty brake system? I read that many people have gotten faulty brake systems from BMI KARTS which Is where I got mine

Sounds like it may be jammed straight from the factory; basically defective. Can you manually move the piston or mechanically/forcefully like with a 'C' clamp? To move it that way, the piston would have to be out some.

I can't stand screw-ups like this so I stand with you. Time and expense just wasted...
