Question Speed Bleeders for Brembos?

Brake fluid time change has come for the glorified EVO and I'm in the market for some speed bleeders for the EVO's Brembos both front and rear.

As I'm having a hard time searching this forum as of late, does anybody have the size of speed bleeder needed for the EVO, and for that matter, where I can purchase them?

Tanks,

jcnel.

Just a stab in the dark... http://www.speedbleeder.com

I have no idea which size fits the Brembos.

An alternative you might want to consider is purchasing a Motive power bleeder. At a cost of $45 to $50 it will cost about $10 more than the speedbleeders all together but it can be used on all of your vehicles, present or future. It really is a labor saver since you don't have to worry about pumping the brakes and constantly topping off the reservoir.

I got mine from PepBoys in their help section in red carded packaging. You'll need 2 bleeders for each corner.

Also available at:
Napa #6751570 $11.69/pr
Kragens #12706 $11.xx/pr
Speedbleeder #1010S $14.xx/pr

Bleeder spec: 10mm x 1.0 x 33mm

Oh... an extra speedbleeder for the clutch slave would be a good idea too, as normal bleeding of that line more tedious than the brakes.

I haven't needed Motul fluid yet. Mostly out of curiousity I want to see what I can get away with. Thus far Valvoline Synpower brake fluid has worked well through a couple of track events. I do however have Mitsu's brake cooling guides, which do help in keeping temps down.

Good place for Motul RBF600 at $11.95/.5 liter http://www.porterfield-brakes.com/cg...eld/fluids.cgi
