#1 Get a Motive Bleeder and fill master cyl with your favorite brake fluid
#2 Remove master cyl cap and install motive bleeder cap
#3 Pump Motive Bleeder to 13psi
#4 Get a 10mm wrench and loosen the inner and outer nipple from each wheel, close it up once clear fluid comes out
#5 Do two wheels and remove the motive cap and fill the fluids back to the top again.
#6 Repeat step #3 and do #4 and #5 on the last two wheel
#7 Perform final check on brake fluid and you are done.

It's expensive @ $60, but well worth it in my opinion. I used to be able to do it without taking the wheels off before I realized there was a nipple on the back side of the caliper. I can do it in about 45 min taking my time from start to finish.

Any DOT4 fluid is fine, no need for the crazy $20 bottle on a street car. I am using $11/bottle brake fluid at the track and I haven't died yet
