so ive done some searching around but im getting mixed info here about bleeding the brakes . some old school people say bleed furthest to nearest from MC others say follow the Manual and bleed in cross pattern . i have a 2000 EBP EM1 , im debating whether or not i should follow the Factory Service Manual or these threads ? also according to the manual i should "only use HONDA BRAND DOT 3 fluid" , but since im replacing my lines for stainless braided Goodrige lines what would your opinions be on using this Superblue DOT 4 stuff ?? http://www.tirerack.com/brakes/ate/ate_superblue_fluid.jsp . my upgraded set up will = Brembo Blank Rotors ALL AROUND , Akebono Ceramic Pads ALL AROUND and goodrige stainless braided street performance lines ALL AROUND ,,, the EM1 has NO ABS ... need info and opinions TIA

the dot 4 is fine. the dot 3 is fine. just choose one and DONT mix them.

bleed: right rear, left front, left rear, right front.
