I was informed a number of years ago (… and this may not apply to the 370Z) that the brake system is comprised of two separate sets of lines, with the front and rear lines configured to be diagonally independent … so if there is a failure in one set of lines, you will still have braking power (… albeit reduced) both front and back. So the idea is to bleed one set of lines completely … either RR and FL or RL and FR), beginning with the longer rear line, and then turn to the diagonally opposite set of lines, again beginning with the rear line.
