Wow, I should have printed this out for my local Mitsubishi service department yesterday! They tried to send me on my way with a brake pedal that hit the floor! It took about five guys and multiple attemtps to bleed my brakes!

My 04 RS has the original brake fluid with about 10K miles. In preparation for the first time on the track with this car, I'm going to replace the fluid with high temp fluid. Does anyone know how much fluid you have to bleed out of the right rear before you've got new fluid coming through? I'm assuming that the old fluid will be clean and that I won't be able to tell. I'll be using a Motive power bleeder. I just don't want to leave any old fluid in there, but I also don't want to use more than 1 can of fluid if I don't need to.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Guys, is it the "Import" Motive version that we would purchase for the EVO ? (I have a IX)

Should be Left Rear, Right Front, Right Rear, Left Front
Not that I have done a JDM setup although following the writeup and what makes sense to me this should do it for you.
If you get a Phoneix Bleeder that does reverse bleed it really should not matter for you.
