Since bleeding is mentioned, what's the best way to bleed brake lines and the clutch: 1. empty all old fluid first, then fill with new and bleed, or 2. fill

Technically, go under the car and open the bleeder valve. Since I am lazy, I did what you said. Of course I have been doing it since the car had about 2500 miles.

I empty the old fluid out with a high-tech turkey baster. The clutch reservoir is pretty small. I haven't had any clutch stick issues in a couple of hard track days but I did swap the fluid out before going as CSC's are prone to overheating.
