    Don't waste your money with Amsoil or Redline. M1 is just fine.

    The brake fluid is the one with the most issues. Is it DOT 4, 4+ 5,
    or 5.1? Will it mix with the current DOT 4+? Is it hydroscopic (it
    should be for street use)? Etc.

    Brake fluid is the one I'd be careful about and do my homework on.

    Also, if you replace the fluid this power bleeder works very well:
