i would of thought it be the other one first.....when you bleed the whole brake system you start with the calliper furthest away from the master cyl. brad....

the equivalent ap is more than the brembos! which is what we have just rebadged!!

Adam i did the outside one first, then the second time i did the inside one,

also u may need to tighten the bottom balance bar unions as mine leaked for a while, then i tightened them up and they were perfect!!
