Replacing Brake Fluid

[darkman0101]

Howdy,
one of my front brake callipers seized so I have got a replacement.

Now the question is: Roughly how much hydraulic fluid will I require to flush the old fluid out and bleed the system.

The car is an AE92 FXGT.

Cheers in advance,
Jas

usally about 250ml a wheel, drum/disc reguardless. buy a litre and you'll have plenty.

And If you're doing any fast road/track work, get the good stuff from Race Brakes - about $70 a litre.

$70!!!! $&#$% go the $8 stuff from auto trail man

250ml a wheel is a waste of fluid and money.
we normally change brake fluid with 600ml for all wheels.
just make sure u work ure way to the m/cylinder, eg. L/R, R/R, L/F, R/F

Yeah, we usually use a bit under 500mL on most cars when we do it. Depends how you're going to do it I guess.
