disappearing brake fluid

brake friud goes down over a period of a month or 2 but no stains on the driveway no fluid on the tires no fluid down the firewall, is it likely that its slowly dripping on the caliper and burning off??? not so much problem solving but just curious if anyone else has had this problem?

Are you talking about his kicks? Because 280zx's don't have drum brakes. The fluid is going somewhere... check the inside firewall under the carpet, and all connections.

lmao yeah i checked my kicks, all four calipers, all connections i saw, even checked the ones i didnt see,

i think it is such a slow leak that its not showing up

and just checked behind the carpet only found a dirty sock and a species of unidentified fungi, will turn it in to science later form a reward, maybe just request that they name it snwphat540 lol

these are my kicks

it could be just sitting in the little rubber gromet between the push rod and the booster. if not there is a connection under the car for the rear brakes. and the proportioning valve.
