FWIW I had speed bleeders on my WRX. They're nice, but become useless if you use a pressured bleeder like the Motive tool. The tool pressurizes (positive, not vacuum) the brake system and pushes fresh fluid through so all you have to do is crack the bleeders open; they won't ingest air since the circuit's are pressurized. Just another way of doing a one-man brake job that I thought I'd share.

SB1010-SS for front and rear.
Fits like a charm. I am 95% sure this same speed bleeder will work for the clutch too

There are two lengths offered - 31.35 and 34.44. Which length did you use or does it not matter?
Thank you for all of your great DIY write ups! I figured it out - it's the longer threaded version with the part # you gave. I looked at the part numbers closer and the short 31.35 is SB1010S-SS My eyes skipped the extra "S" and I thought they both had the same #. Last edited by Amadeus; 01-28-2013 at 10:50 PM.

To the OP or anyone else using the speed bleeders, any issues thus far? Does it actually make solo bleeding a breeze. I bring this up b/c my local track enthusiasts shop are adamant that years of trying to work with speed bleeders have failed, just ending up using the OEM bleeders and a 2 man crew. Something about letting air in as it closes.
SS lines are in route and picked a pump that will feed/keep the reservoir under pressure. |

Thanks for this write up. It helped. Flare wrench helped since standard wrench rounds the nut if it's on too tight. Thanks for lookout

Nice write up.
Spent a few hours at the track last week with my stock 86. Got settled, then into an aggressive groove. I found the brake feel /performance the most noticeable "low performance" part of the ride. The SS lines is a great idea, mine are on order. |

When I first purchased speed bleeders about a decade ago, they warned not to over-tighten them because they are hollow and could break. Having half a bleeder stuck in the caliper would suck.
Also, I'm wondering where the warning to not pump the brake pedal all the way for fear of rupturing the master cylinder comes from. Any source for this? |

Thank you for this! Did a line swap last weekend and followed this. Made everything easy and simple. Definitely agree that a flare wrench is the way to go, almost stripped the nut for the hard line/flexible line connection.

question about "air bubbles" Where exactly do we look for this? I understand the brakeline change as well as the bleeding part, but I'm not sure about looking for bubbles while bleeding the brake lines.
Figured I might attempt to do this on my own, once I get my car on a lift. |
