OK, how much brake fluid do I need to buy to do a brake bleed? I have searched and did not find a good answer. I have read where Stoner used like 12 quarts and someone else used 2 quarts. How much should I buy to do a brake system bleed. I was thinking about using the ATE blue stuff, DOT 4.

I got 3 quarts and i have 1 left, 3-4 should be more than enough

Did you get brake lines yet?

I bought 2 liters of the ATE Blue fluid from ebay.

This guy is good. I didn't draw all of the old fluid out (which I should have) and I didn't use a whole liter to do my entire system. When I put my wheels on in a couple of days, I may do it again just to be sure that I'm getting the full benefit of the DOT 4 fluid rather than a mixture.

i believe 2 qt is enough, but i usually have 3 qt just in case

I am about to by the Supra brakes from TMF2004 so I want to make sure I have enough fluid to do a proper flush of all the existing fluid and put in the ATE blue DOT4.

Thanks for the info, I just ordered 3 quarts from the guy in your link. Seems like a pretty good price and I could not find it at any of the auto shops near me.

Enjoy your new brakes, you'll be fine with 3 quarts

Bill, did you buy the SupraTT calipers already? At least you did it the right way. Have the rims before getting the calipers mine are still sitting in the box.

Jeff, yea I am sending out the money order today. Hopefully I will have them sometime next week. Hopefully you will be able to give me a hand installing them . My IForged are built for big brakes front and rear. I have tons of clearance on the fronts. I also bought some spacers just incase I need more space.
