DIY : How to bleed your brakes
Bleeding your brakes is crucial to keeping them in good working order. Especially if you track or autocross the car. So, I created a quick video that goes over the process for your BRZ/FRS/86.
Let me know what you all think! [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfZUv-GqHew[/ame]

Nice video, I just finished a weekend of Autocross in Packwood, WA and the brake fluid change has been on my mind. I don't think I'll bleed them now as I'm just going to replace the fluid entirely but this is a solid how-to video.

Thanks! Doing a complete flush (as you might know) is the same process, just a bit more pedal pumping I miss the days of ATE Blue so you could tell when all the clear fluid was out, or vice versa when flushing back to clear.
