Default Brake bleeding order for a 98 coupe?
About to change brakes to ZO6 brakes... What is the bleeding order of a 98? The reason I ask is that I had read that it was different for the early models.

I have seen other posts that say this is a waste of time and it makes no difference.
This is correct. When the brake line routing was changed in 2001 the bleeding sequence changed also. Before that the old "start from the fartherest corner" method worked fine.
