my friend has a set of them and when I did my Z32 brake swap he gave me a set and it really works great... Just plug it in and pump away at the pedal. No need to call a friend or wake up my girlfriend when I want to do a brake fluid flush

Speedbleeders rock. I've got 'em and I love 'em. I still hate bleeding my brakes since brake fluid is Satan's pee, but it's *much* easier with the Speedbleeders.

I have used SpeedBleeders on my Maxima and my 240sx. I use them on both the brake system, and the clutch system. They work like a charm, save a crap load of time, and are fool proof.

You can either use the Russell SpeedBleeders, or Earls Solo-Bleeds. Both work extremely well.

If you want to use them for the clutch system, and you have an OEM slave cylinder, you will need the 7mm x 1.0 size bleeder. If you have a rebuilt slave cylinder from Autozone, NAPA, etc, they usually have a 10mm x 1.0 size bleeder. You will need two bleeders total, one for the actual slave cylinder, and the other for the block. BTW, the block is also a 7mm x 1.0 size bleeder.
